Although we finally had the temozolomide figured out, there was still the question of the injections the would flow into the brain. That medication was called topotecan. We were still waiting to find out who the oncologist was, that would administer that protocol. We knew that the oncologist at MD Anderson was going to call our surgeon in Omaha to get a recommended name for an oncologist here.
We went to the surgeons office on Friday to have Maries stitches, from the surgery, removed. I asked if they were contacted by the oncologist in Houston for the name of an oncologist here. They were helpful and gave me that name of the oncologist that they recommended. I called that office, and they didn't know who I was or what I was talking about. My thought was that maybe, the oncologist in Houston, had not contacted the recommended oncologist here yet. I called the doctors office in Houston to find out what they knew, but it was the end of the week so I didn't expect a call back until Monday or Tuesday.
