151201 - Follow up ref SDS 3 0000, ref SDS 1 0000.
151202 -
151203 - Millie submitted ref DIT 1 0001 to Denise at Stanford Cancer Center,
151204 - who can submit to Todd and to Doctor Guardino.
151205 -
151206 -    1.  Here is the record on meeting with you and Todd, supporting
151207 -        Doctor Guardino on Oct 19 at the Cancer Center. ref SDS 3 0001
151209 -         ..
151210 -    2.  I'm grateful for the attention given my case; hoping to get
151211 -        Doctor Guardino's report to prepare for meeting at Kaiser next
151212 -        week.  You can also reach me at 925 680 8948.
151214 -  ..
151215 - This complements the record submitted to Doctor Benz at UCSF on
151216 - 041018. ref SDS 2 0001
151217 -
151218 -     [On 041209 received Stanford's 2nd opinion 5 weeks after meeting
151219 -     with Kaiser, and Stanford addressed the 2nd opinion to Kaiser,
151220 -     rather than to the patient. ref SDS 4 WY9I

151601 - Millie sent another letter, ref DIT 2 0001, clarifying submission of
151602 - the record on 041019 on the issue of worsening conditions for IBC.
151603 -
151604 -    1.  Just noticed I sent you the record of our meeting on Oct 19
151605 -        from Rod's email program, while getting his mail caught up.
151606 -        ref DIT 2 0001  To avoid confusion, I am submitting the record
151607 -        again showing understandings from meeting with you and Todd
151608 -        supporting Doctor Guardino. ref SDS 3 5W6H
151610 -         ..
151611 -    2.  Again, I'm very grateful for efforts by Stanford.  Please let
151612 -        me know when to expect the doctor's report on a 2nd opinion so
151613 -        I can prepare for a meeting at Kaiser next week.  You can also
151614 -        reach me at 925 680 8948 or at work 415 984 8291 if you have
151615 -        any questions. ref DIT 2 SR5N
151617 -         ..
151618 -    3.  Rod mentioned that during a call a day or so after we met at
151619 -        Stanford you asked what Doctor Guardino commented about IBC
151620 -        symptoms "fluctuating." ref DIT 2 00W2  I don't think she
151621 -        commented on this when she met with us after you and Todd
151622 -        gathered patient history. ref SDS 3 0R49  "Fluctuating" is not
151623 -        a good explanation of my case.  Since we did not know about IBC
151624 -        until May of this year, symptoms were not charted day-to-day.
151625 -        We were increasingly alarmed to request several examinations
151626 -        through 2003 as conditions got worse shown by the chronology
151627 -        you and Todd reviewed, and summarized in the record on 041019,
151628 -        ref SDS 3 TX36, reporting we requested biopsies, and other
151629 -        diagnostics, which were deferred by Kaiser until April 2004,
151630 -        when I ordered a biopsy myself during a minor procedure to
151631 -        install a port for weekly chemotherapy treatments.
151633 -         ..
151634 -    4.  You mentioned that delayed treatment impacts morbidity.  What
151635 -        can we do to address this?
