Poor Lady, I hope it's not cancer.
I did ask him about x-rays and he said he is trying to help me save money on waiting for the x-rays. He said that the mass feels very large and she whimpered in pain when he pressed on it, so he is worried her time is limited. He said if it is not cancer, then x-rays do not need to be done and it will save us money. I agree with you though. That was the only thing I did not like about the visit. I just want to know if it spread. He said "one thing at a time". I guess he knows best, he is the doctor.
