I can only say that if you feel something is not as it should be, then continue to ask questions and make a polite pest of yourself!

Unrelated to cancer, a cousin of mine had back surgery a few years and the recuperation process was slow and she was in pain and many thought she should just suck in up. Come to find out the surgery did not work as planned, and she needed another surgery. Always question when there is too much pain and when your body feels something is wrong, sometimes we have to go with our gut.

Best wishes to you and your wife!
