More Tests

Mike and I went to the Surgeons office on Thursday. She was very informative, before she schedules a surgery she wanted to do another test to make sure we are not dealing with a reading that might be compromised. So I had my test yesterday and will see the surgeon again next Monday for the results. So we are in the waiting mode.
Thursday we go to Philadelphia for another appointment with my Urologist, hopefully all will go well.
So thats about all that is going on in my life.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take.
Proverbs 3:5-6

Here we go again

I am not sure how to begin this post....but you know me to my credit or demise I am brutally blunt. So here goes:
Mike and I received some pretty disturbing news yesterday. My PET scan results showed there is another lymph node mass "most likely reoccurent melanoma" there was also something about the muscle being targeted. So my Oncologist made an appointment with my Surgeon for next Thursday, she might not be able to handle this type of surgery. My Oncologist said they may need to refer me to Johns Hopkins or a cancer specialist in one of the many hospitals in Philadelphia. I am hoping and praying we can do this locally, these trips to Philadelphia and Baltimore are brutal (especially coming home from my last surgery).

Right now we are trying not to worry to much and know what ever the outcome will be is in Gods hands.
We ask for your prayers.

Pet Scan

This morning I had my PET/CT Scan. It was really hard to lie there for 45 minutes without moving, with the discomfort of the incisions, but I made it...whew. All in all the appointment took almost 3 hours. Now its a waiting game until I get the results back. We probably will not know the results until early next week. (at least thats what the radiologist said).
