Hi Guys,

I am trying to help my friend here.

Its been a year that my friend was complaining about a back ache. She didn't bother about it too much. Recently she left her job and decided to see a doc.

Turns out there is a malignant tumour growing at her lower spine which is quite near to some nerve.

She is seeing a specialist surgeon who operated on the spinal area.

I want her to seek a second opinion on her condition.

I feel she has to go for her operation to remove the tumour as soon as possible since its malignant. But I am also worried that because it is around the nerve area... it can be complicated .

Anyone knows which specialist she should see?
Any advice or similar cases that you can share with me?

I am so worried for her... since she's my best buddy =(

someone... *** help!

We have no idea where you are - what State, what country - and AMHD does NOT recommend anyone specific.

She should go to a cancer treatment center in her area. That's the best source of expert information.

Why is your recommendation different from her Doctor's?
