Last week we had an appointment with Dr. Scott Samuelson, an oncologist at Salt Lake Clinic with Utah Cancer. We decided to go for a 2nd opinion to make sure there isn't a treatment out there we're missing out on. Dr. Samuelson was great and spent a lot of time with us and basically confirmed that what we are doing is the best treatment for Craig's cancer. He did suggest the same drug, Sutent, that Dr. Jones wants Craig to try. We haven't heard back from our insurance on that appeal yet so there still is a possibility Craig could try it.
We have had some success in getting insurance issues resolved between the U Hospital, IHC and the Huntsman financial person. Lots of hours on the phone and refiguring out-of-pocket costs and the deductible. Just a few items hanging out there now that I'm hoping will resolve soon.
Loving the warmer days lately. Looking forward to spring break in St. George in a few weeks.
