Well, I have an appointment for the lung biopsy to check out the nodules they found when they did my MRI. Friday. At 6:45 in the *morning.* They'll keep me for six hours. They're going to go in through my skin, not down my throat. And this determines whether I have stage 1 or stage 4 uterine cancer, with everything that implies. And thus how my treatment goes. More good thoughts, please? Boost the stream? I'd be grateful.

Crossing fingers and toes for you! (I am having a tooth extracted tomorrow so I will be feeling a little sorry for myself in the morning, but I will go right back to worrying about you after that!)

How long after the biopsy until you know your diagnosis?

[mmegaera]

Thank you. I hope your tooth thing goes well.

I don't know. A few days, I guess. That seems to be par for the course for the rest of the findings so far.

stoutfellow already boosted over on the Bujold list, so folks over there will be thinking of you and wishing you well.

[mmegaera]

Thank you both.

Do you remember what your blood sugar was? It's amazing how some systems can be way wonky, & yet others chugging along just fine.

[mmegaera]

98 the last time they tested it (just before I left the hospital on Friday). That does seem to be one problem I don't have [knocks wood].

Mel Harper sends her good wishes as well.

[mmegaera]

Thank you.

Good thoughts and accurate diagnosis wishes.

[filkferengi]

That's an excellent number, which means a number of other systems are working right. It's important to give ourselves [and our bodies] credit for what we're doing right. Kudos to you for getting things seen to.

Good luck and good hunting to you and your medical team!

I'll join in, and I'll pass the word to a friend or two who are religious believers.

[mmegaera]

Thank you.

*worries for you*

That is very scary, and I'm sorry you are having to deal with it. But better to know than not, I suppose.

Holding you in my prayers, and sending all my love.

Thank you. I'd say about 95% of me really *doesn't* want to know, and basically just wants to jump in my van and outrun my body. If I even thought I had a prayer of being able to outrun it, I'd be long gone by now.

I am hanging onto that other 5% with my fingernails at this point.

[mmegaera]

Thanks.

[17catherines]

I can understand that. Denial is *very* attractive.

Sending good thoughts, and crossing my fingers for you. ♥
