Oncologist wants to do radiation now after a biopsy showed cancer has returned. A very aggressive kind of cancer called signet ring cell.

Why is it people believe doctors infallible never wrong or mistaken?

No, it does not always mean cancer. It could simply be an infection. But get it checked.

I was hoping stress or infection was the culprit so I would not need radiation or more chemo therapy to stop cancer in my body.
