Hallelujah everyone! at last someone willing to fight our corner. Meeting went really well with new onc. He has had patients on Tarceva through trials ect and some private patients. He said the PCT had contacted him and that he is happy to write to them requesting it for Jimmy and has made them aware of that fact but he wanted to meet with Jimmy 1st. I said thats all we want someone on our side to fight in our corner. He seemed like a really genuine guy and we both felt really comfortable with him. We both came out of there feeling happy. We will be seeing him again in 4 weeks. I used to come out of the meeting feeling drained so this is a refreshing change!

Absolutely fantastic news Deanne and Jimmy. Now will the PCT see reason and stop counting the failures and watch the successes?
Thank you Mr New Oncologist. We need more doctors like you on our side.

Thank you all for you kind replies, It was refreshing to sit there and actually feel as though the oncologist was definitely on our side, no formalities, no excuses just straight forward palin talking. For the first time since i was diagnosed i have come away feeling relaxed and happy.

Hi buddies
Sorry for the delay in my reply but I am soo thrilled for you, I am really pleased the appointment went so well, sounds like you finally will receive the care you should have always got. It sure makes a refreshing change to get some positive news anyway.
Keep us posted on how it goes with the PCT.
