A member asked:
What's the expert opinion, could the dr do a biopsy of small nodules in my lymphnodes in neck?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: It is not possible to provide a meaningful opinion without examining the lesions. I trust that is what your doctor will do and make the right choice.
