Hi you can ask for a second opinion. It dosen't matter if you are going public it is your right to gave a second opinion. It is a hard time trying to make decisions because all we want is to be well and cancer free.. I always took someone with me to appointments as a second pair of ears helps.
It is your decision I remember the look of horror on my husbands face when I asked the doctor what would happen if I refused treatment. There was never a chance I wouldn't have treatment but I needed to know. My plan kept changing and I ended up with a mastectomy with immediate reconstruction and yes I did have chemo
Talk to someone and don't be afraid to ask questions I always had a list it is your body take care
