Results and a major buzz kill.

posted in Cancer Sucks! on 11/12/05 at 12:11 AM

Well, I’m going to try to keep this short since it’s late and I am a very sleepy girl. :37: I got the results of my CT Scan and everything looks great. I’M IN REMISSION! How awesome is that!?!? :36: Chrispian takes me out to dinner to celebrate and everything is GREAT! Especially since I am leaving on the 19th, seven days and counting, to go on my very first cruise. It’s just my mother and I, no boys allowed, so it should be fun!

Next I had a check-up appointment with Dr. E, my radiation doctor, that would just be a quick look-see and ask some questions to make sure I’m still doing OK. Not FUN, but there would be no needles so not THAT bad. :21: BOY WAS I WRONG. So, I get in my stirrups and he pops the hood and notices some “weird cell/tissue growth” on my cervix. He ended up doing a full pelvic exam and took a sample of this “weird cell/tissue growth” so he could send it off to a lab. Can you say BUZZ KILL? I got to have 5 days of happiness and now I am back to not being able to sleep, ulcer troubles, and diarrhea. Plus, my results won’t be back before I leave for my cruise, and my cell phone won’t work out there, so they are going to call my husband. I’m going to try to not think about it while I’m “relaxing” and see if I can’t call home somehow to get my results. :42:

I am hopeful that it’s just some scar tissue that is no big deal, or at least something they can whack off with a laser. Make some guaca-MOLE-e with it. (Sorry, that’s a bad joke.) Anyways, the whole appointment was interesting but I don’t have the time to go into detail about it right now. I’ll leave it for tomorrow! :1:

Please cross your fingers and say a little prayer that my results come back NORMAL. :63: Every little bit helps!

Hey, girl, I’m so happy for the great news – I know the next results will be just as glowing.

Have an awesome cruise and celebrate life.

You’re in my prayers,and I’ll throw in a few extra prayers that you and your mom won’t get :31: on the cruise! (I have an aunt who swears by the motion sickness patches, by the way!)

Thanks, Joi! :4: I’m going to try to have an AWESOME cruise! Hopefully I won’t get sick. I have never been out on a boat/ship like this so maybe i’ll be lucky. Also, i’m hoping that the boat will be too big to rock around. :21:

You know something? I think this Doc is going to miss your little "get-togethers" and just needs an excuse to see you again! He’s just reluctant to let you go…all his other patients are probably all over 60!

Ignore the poor soul and go have the time of your life. Deal with him after you get home!:4::3:

Bea, that’s what I’m going to do. I’m going to pretend that my initial appointment with him isn’t until AFTER my vacation. So, none of this has happened yet! :4:

Besides, I think you are right thinking that he just likes to look at my powdered and glittery nether-regions. :71:

You go and have a great time – send us a postcard!
