stand4hope Posted July 24, 2004 Share Posted July 24, 2004 Karen, You have my prayers, too. Why do you have to wait so long though? Was that the oncs first available opening? I don't know how everybody else does it, but we always schedule the doctor appointment quite a bit ahead of time and then they schedule the scan 2 or 3 days before that. I'm helping a lot, huh? Sorry. I'm imposing my impatience on you. You've been doing so well, I'm sure the scans will be ok, but big prayers going out for you for security!!!!

-Cheryl- Posted July 24, 2004 Share Posted July 24, 2004 Karen, Prayers being sent your way this moment. I hate the wait! But I know you have much faith in the Lord. Just give all the anxiety to him. I am sure that everything is fine! Love, Cheryl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nushka Posted July 24, 2004 Share Posted July 24, 2004 Karen, Sending a special prayer right now. That is a long time to wait for results. Wishing only the best for you. Nina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Margaret Posted July 24, 2004 Share Posted July 24, 2004 Karen, Absolutely special prayers for a clear scan. I guess I am really lucky because my oncologist at UCSD calls me the day after my scan and gives me the general run-down and, when I went to Cedars for treatment, I would be told the result of the scans an hour after. You are so positive that I am sure this will just be another reason to be positive about being cured. You have been of such great help to me and I thank you for that. Blessings, Margaret Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bean_si (Not Active) Posted July 24, 2004 Share Posted July 24, 2004 Karen, Prayers going up for you. My old onc never once called with test results. I would show up the next day at the hospital and ask for the report. As you can see, I am not a patient person. Cat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvmydog2 Posted July 24, 2004 Share Posted July 24, 2004 As always, you are in my prayers. I can relate to your wait on results. My last CT was July 5 and my appointment for results are August 11.

karen335 Posted July 25, 2004 Author Share Posted July 25, 2004 I want to say thank you so very much for all of your thoughts and prayers. The 2nd of August was the earliest appt. my onc. had available. I know the wait seems long but results will be stable, how could they not be with prayers from everyone. I am truly blessed. You are all in my prayers each night and each of you are very special to me... God Bless and hugs, Love all of you, Karen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remembering Dave Posted July 26, 2004 Share Posted July 26, 2004 From Karen to another, I am betting that your scans will look awesome, you are such a strong woman who has done so well so far, how could they not be? But just to be on the safe side, prayers for you! God Bless, Karen c. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karen335 Posted August 3, 2004 Author Share Posted August 3, 2004 Hi All, Thank you all for your prayers, they sure worked. Your right, over a week is quite a while to wait. But it was worth it, no change, CT shows still stable. My blood work was perfect and the CEA is .7, which is normal. I have not has any radiation treatment since May 2003 and no chemo since October 2003. Next CT in 3 months and MRI next week of the brain. Will post results as soon as I get them, which will be the end of August from the radiation onc. at the City of Hope. I have truly been blessed and give God all the glory. I couldn't have gotten through this without Him and all of you... Thank you all and God Bless, Prayers for all of you, Karen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
