        I had the same decision to make. I chose interferon route in hopes of prolonging recurrence if I have it. I feel like so many new drugs are coming out these last few years and if I have 1-3 years extra time who knows what may be on the market by then. It isn't easy to do the interferon, but so far I'm toughing it out.

              In just echoing and I am greatful you got it taken off. At MD Anderson they said anything that feels like a pea or kernel of corn get it off immediately due to that is what it feels like. Not to scare you and you'll know this week hopefully, but thank you for getting it removed. I pray for good results.
