Results from seeing the Oncology Gynaecologist today, I am booked in to have the "thing" removed and biopsied on February 6th.

The Doctor doesn't think it is cancer, but as I reminded him, I had two wrong diagnoses (by Specialist Oncologists) when I had stage 3 breast cancer, so he doesn't blame me for not taking any chances.
He thinks the lump may be attached to my bladder and bowel, and even my ovaries, so he will prepare for a long surgery to remove and repair everything he finds. I'll just stay perfectly calm and think positive thoughts until Feb 7th. LOL!!!!!
Hugs n love to all, Meganne

I'm sorry for my english ....
Unfortunately, I know how you feel, the fear is so great, but not wrapped your head before you break it!

Remove ovaries is scary, but if you do it,you will make be quiet! My gynecologist has recommended to remove everything to me ...

a big hug

I just now saw this - you must think I am really a poor friend - I know that you will be positive - just reading your post - let's me know - of your attitude - and not trusint in what they totally say - is very smart indeed. The surgery sounds like a much needed proceedure to make some repairs - I will be praying for you and please know - I love you dearly - wished I could be with you - before, during and after.

Positive news, but I don't understand why you must wait so long for the surgery or is it like in Canada and UK where the Government has set the policy of preference. At least you should have the major scare taken away. I do think positive for you and know you are strong in spirit. Kay

1 comment
meganne by meganne 19 Dec 2011

Kay I think the Christmas break and an extremely busy cancer surgeon means a little bit of a wait, it's only about 6 weeks and so worth it to have the best available. He works in closely with my present Oncology team so I'd rather wait for him. He was also (REALLY) nice, :-)))))) hehehehehehehe

Peak hour on the Freeway is hairy & dangerous at the best of times, but made a 100 times worse in yesterdays conditions.

Tidgy is holding her own and enjoys nothing more than sitting on my chest when I lay down. Mishka & Spanky seem to have improved. At least Mishka has stopped peeing everywhere he is not supposed to, I washed 13 (dog/cat) rugs while he was acting out! Aaaaaaargh!

Positive hopes and prayers for you Meganne but man, couldn't he get you in sooner? The waiting is the hardest part. I know what goes through your head while you are waiting a month for tests then waiting for the results, that is what drove me crazy the most. Cleveland Clinic has my papers all there and I am taking 4 CDs that have everything on pics so when I leave there I want to already know what that doctor thinks! Try to find something to occupy your time that uses you mind too so you can't think about it. Mind games, puzzles, anything that keeps the mind occupied! Good luck girl!

I am praying for you. I went through something very much the same envolving my uterus, bladder, etc. I was not cancer (yeah), it was endometriosis. It's always so scary to go through any surgery but you need to have this done so you can get better. Love and hugs from all of us at CUTE!

katydid by katydid 19 Dec 2011

My daughter also had 3 surgeries for endometriosis. The first one was while she was in college and it was a question whether she would have children. Well two surgeries later and two miracle babies later. I am blessed with two granddaughters. Dr insisted on a hysterectomy at that point.

meganne by meganne 19 Dec 2011

Stork there is probably some Endometriosis involved but I am hoping not. I had a hysterectomy at 28 because of it. Couldn't carry girls, lost 5 all told. Managed to have two sons before it all got too painful. (in more ways than one) Merry Christmas hugs and love, Meg

meganne by meganne 20 Dec 2011

and love. I am so glad yours was not cancer. Endometriosis is bad enough and very painful.
Kay I was also told I wouldn't have babies and was actually about a week pregnant when that doctor told me. Fooled 'im I did!!! :-))

As the others say, Meganne, think positive, although I am very aware of the alarm in your mind, after your previous issue with the big "C"! Seems like the doctor is very optimistic of no malignancy, or he would have possibly scheduled surgery earlier! Hang tight, thinking good thoughts! My prayers are ongoing for you that you heal quickly from the surgery, and the report afterwards is great news!!
Hugs,
Angel

The results are good and I can imagine that with your past history you are hesitant to believe but this time it
will be right. Continue to think postive and all the cuties who support you in this will also think positive and send positive energy your way so that EVERYTHING IS
O.k.
Thinking of you and my prayers are with you as well,

Thanks Michelle, always that niggling doubt that sneaks in. I think everyone who has had cancer feels the sword above their head waiting to drop, even though we try to ignore it, it's always there. I try and imagine it in gorgeous shimmering gold and silver with elaborate carving and a heavenly glow around it, to make it into HIS will rather than some earthly disease.
It will drop when it drops & I will have no say in the matter. BUT I won't be negative about it, it is not who I am. :-))) Merry Christmas hugs and love, Meg
