Fay A. Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 Well, as I feared would happen back in August when the FNAB went so wrong, the mass in the left pleura behind the broken rib is malignant. And the destruction of the ribs is from the tumor. More tests to follow. Had chemo (Gemzar only) today. Later on I will write more on the subject of FNAB and why anyone who recommends you have it done be told NO in no uncertain terms. Right now I just need to lie down for a while. The cough makes it feel as if those ribs are being broken all over again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nushka Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 Oh,Fay, I am so sorry about this news. I know you have been fearing that this would be the outcome. Have you got something that really helps with the pain? Fay, you are always on my prayer list. Now you are on top. Prayers that the gemzar works. Is there any hope of being able to stop the pain with radiation? Rest well and tell us more as you feel up to it. We love you Fay.
