      When I said stage 3, I meant just that. I just spoke to my Oncologist by phone the other day to clarify things. She said Stage 3a. When I mentioned to her about other choices to her other than just getting Interferon, she said no, just Inteferon. I have also done much research myself and when I go to see her on the 6th of May, I will let her know my concerns about other choices I believe I have, this way she can't tell me she has to go or is busy like she did the other day .My Doctor practices at Moffittl, but also at the Veterans Hospital in Tampa in the mornings. Wish me luck!
