i just need a hug today :cry: today was mine and dh 11 yr annv and he was away at school and about a hour ago i started to hurt a great deal. they have me on very strong pain meds to keep me comfortable at home but i dont like to take them with me home with kids alone

 

Hugs headed your way :!:

 

:hug: :daisy: :hug:

 

big hugs!!!!

 

today is the big day! I woke up rested and in a really good mood. I go in at 3:30 to test my lungs and see how strong they are. ( we are hoping strong enough for surgery on my belly on the 18th) then I talk to dr at 4:30.
I just woke up in such a good mood. I feel like I am a peace with whatever they tell me today ( well i mean i pray its good news!)

i'll let you all know what i find out soon!!! hugs

 

Hi everyone... sorry i had not posted yet. I am so wore out.. all day with test didnt get home until after 8 pm...
I am going to copy and paste what i wrote on another message board i belong to( and have belonged to for years) btw a friend of mine from there went with me so thats who i am talking about that went.. sorry im being lazy.. but im tired and wore down.
buy can you continue the prayers? I really need them right now



well the Second Catscan showed 5 masses instead of two.so thats the bad bad news and its on both lungs. One of the masses worry the dr because there is a hole in it ( not sure why i meant to ask but omgosh i had a lot of info today)

my lungs are not fully working and they gave me shots to help with that and steroids at home.


the Good news is he expects the meds to help my lungs get stronger and i'll beable to have my surgery on the 18th as he knows how serious that surgery is( but I go back on 12th to make sure)

they took TEN tubes of blood today! hope noone elese needs any for awhile!!!!!! lol

The dr wants to be aggressive and out more info right away. So tuesday I will go in for a Bronchoscopy


A Bronchoscopy is visual examination of the windpipe and lung branches performed by a pulmonologist (respiratory disease specialist) using a flexible scope. Bronchoscopy may involve brushings (using a small, brush-like device to gather cells from the tissue lining the respiratory system), washings of the respiratory tissues for cell analysis, and biopsy (removal and examination of small amounts of tissue). If the bronchoscopy is still unrevealing, or "negative," a needle biopsy may be performed..


I will also be going in for a A newer imaging test, called CT/PET fusion imaging, combines the technology of CT scan with the technology of PET (positive emission tomography) scan. PET scans involve injecting a sugar-based radiopharmaceutical, which travels through the body and collects in organs and tissues. The PET scan is used to detect cancer cells in the body and the CT scan provides detailed images that can determine the location and size of the cancer. When the results of these tests are "fused" (brought together), the images provide more complete diagnostic information. CT/PET fusion imaging may be used to help diagnose some forms of lung cancer.


so in all what did I find out today?

My lungs are not fully working but meds should help this. I was told this could be why I am so wore out and tired. I mean really walking to car wore me out! ( ask mamak!)

they are concerned and being very aggressvie.

If the meds work on my lungs were go with surgery on 18th.


I did get to meet mamak today and she is a DOLL!!!!!! the kids loved her! and i sure loved meeting her little girls! omg they are adorable!!!!!! ty for helping me today!!!!


Im sure i am forgetting a lot of info i found out today but honestly i am wore down. not sleepy just wore out.


OH and the good news is.. IF this is cancer we found it while it was small! so thats GREAT. Like I told the Dr though until i see something that says YES this test shows cancer then it AINT cancer!!

He said it COULD be a rare form of endo! so were hope for that! lol better then cancer! (although he thinks its not endo)


so there you go thats all I know right now! or uh i'll post more when I remember more!

Now off to finally take some pain meds cause Im hurting!



OH BTW.. Here is my small fit...

I DONT WANT TO HAVE CANCER!
I DONT WANT TO HAVE ENDO!
I DONT WANT TO BE SICK!
I DEMAND TO GET BETTER! AND I WILL GET BETTER!!!

SO THERE FOR I WONT HAVE CANCER! I WONT HAVE ENDO!
I DONT BE SICK NO MORE! AND THATS THAT!

The Lord Loves me and will take care of me!! he is going to make me better even though i am awful sick right now. I will stay postive! I will look forward! I WILL fight this and I WILL WIN!



I KNOW noone ask or wants to be sick.. dont think im saying that. what i am saying is.. i am going to fight this with everything i have
