[Guest guest]

Dear Patty,

I understand that you are visiting a Dr. in LA or something. I'm

reposting this message to brind it to your attn. if you would please

give me your imput, I'd be greatful. I have since found out that I

can Dr. Kahn, the radiologist at the clevland clinic who does the

ultra sound for Dr. Feng, accepts my insurance. I will only pay Feng

125.00 for the consultaiton.

Please answer this question: If there is silicone in the lymph ndes

does it need to be removed? Under what conditions? what are the

pros and dangers of the surgery? thanks Patty.

How was your trip to Dr. Berkola, or? To test blood? I'm sure I'll

read about it on your post. Hope it was eye opening.

Love, Be sure to read the whole string thank you
