Many Thanks @TonyaM - that is what we were both thinking too. Just the thought that it COULD be another tumour that continues growing is not good for the morale, either, even tho the other treatment has already started. Quite the opposite, in fact - it would undermine her confidence in the process, I think.
I am guessing her GP could also OK the request for a biopsy? I reckon she'll check with her GP first to ask for one & if SHE says no - a reason for NOT to have a Biopsy! I personally would still want one! If it WERE positive to cancer - surely they'd want it removed as well, rather than letting it stay there .... I know the condition, long term, is terminal - but no need to have an EXTRA Damocles Sword hanging over your head, eh?
