Dr. Moffitt has a very good explanation, and command of the subject matter of ovarian cancer. She reassured me that if it has come back which it may have after two years and 3/4, that I don't have to do anything right away. I can enjoy life for a while before I do chemo again and I can go on a trip. I can have my foot surgery before the trip and she said it doesn't help to attack it early before there's a mass you can see and before you're having any symptoms or any problems due to the reoccurrence. I did feel better after I l talked to her. She eased my worries. I did well with the first round of chemo and she would expect that I would do well with the second round too If I have to have it plus she said the next time I don't have to lose my hair which is a happy thought.
