For the last four years my dad has had a nodule on his liver and its never caused a problem. On 28th February my dad was told that there is a 2cm lesion on his liver and that if he doesn't have chemo he could be dead in a year. As a family we are obviously very angry and upset with the oncologist as she has basically dismissed every treatment suggestion in the past that my dad has made and now seems to be writing him off. He is 70 this year and we can't lose him because his doctor seemingly can't be bothered to refer him for any other treatment to remove the lesion and is only going down the chemo route. She never bothered following up on him when he had chemo last year and my mum has had to chase her to organise blood tests and scans when my dad complained of bone pain. He is seeking a second opinion but realistically what are the chances of his oncologist being wrong about his prognosis and should we make a complaint about her?
