Jean…..Seattle….my old stomping grounds……but…..the biopsy that was performed in August 2008 was the only biopsy done. There was no biopsy performed for the original diagnosis. That is something I do not understand. It would seem to me that a biopsy would really be the only way to really diagnose HCC. The more I ponder this situation, the more I think that a lawyer might be the best way to answer some of my questions.
