SandyS Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 I met with the urology specialist/surgeon regarding my adrenalectomy yesterday, and after he reviewed all the reports and we talked for a few minutes, he said: "Well, I've have to get a hold of your oncologist, but I don't see anything here that warrants putting you thru major surgery." Says that it really hasn't grown enough to speak of, and he wants to take a "watch and see" approach with it (we've been watching it for 2 1/2 years and it hasn't done much!), and do some blood work to set markers and baselines to watch. THAT'S ALL! So unless my onocologist points out something he's missing, my panic was unnecessary! Happy, Happy Day! Hugs and prayers to all, SandyS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stand4hope Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 Sandy, Your panic was understandable. Believe me, we all do it with every little thing that could mean something is wrong. I'm glad to hear that you don't have to have the surgery. You sound very relieved. Take care and enjoy the rest of the week.

Kasey Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 Oh Sandy - such GREAT news. We all (or if not all, then ALMOST all) get stressed and panicked over every thing that does not seem right. What a weight off your shoulders. Now, get that SPECIAL guy and have him buy you a FABULOUS dinner tonight! By the way, we all are waiting to hear all about him. Well, if not all - at least I am waiting to hear!!! Doesn't he have to pass FAMILY inspection Kasey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
