"I’m a 12 year survivor, but I’m scheduled to go to UTSouthwestern this month because of burning pain.”

I’m a 12 year survivor, but I’m scheduled to go to UT Southwestern this month because of burning pain in my other breast and a 9mm nodule in my right lung and a lump next to my spine! My radiologist said he isn’t concerned, so it’s my decision to go to Back to UT! Is this the right move?
