My dad has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer last year and has gone through the surgery in May 2012. Hes finished a 6 months of chemo. The result of cat scans and blood work in the last 3 months  In the last few months indicated the cancer is back. Based on the reports, he is in stage 2, he has been told the operation is not an option and recommended to start radiation in the next 2 weeks. we are not confident enough if that would be the best option, how can we seek a second opinion without waiting for  months to see another surgeon or oncologist?
Hello, Thanks for the query to Chat Doctor. Forum. Since, you haven't mentioned, which type of carcinoma, your father were having at the time of surgery. Removal was encapsulated or partial part operated? Now, note one thing more, whether it is localized or spreads (secondaries) to other parts of body (most likely). In my opinion consult two different oncologists and get their opinion and finally decide, future course of action regarding treatment. Hope I have answered your query. If further any question I will help. Good luck for your father.
