Depressed -- UPDATED!

[Rena]

Thanks, everyone. I appreciate it.

This is just one of those sucky things. I dread having to go in for the mammograms in the first place. But now that they want to see me again, it's frustrating I can't get in sooner. Tuesday feels like a year away.

I have had a appointment to get a tooth pulled for a week I go tommorrow all the waiting is worse then getting it pulled I have to take valiums just to go to the dentist . So I know yours feels like foreverrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. It is almost over & You will be ok 

[Rena]

Thanks, Jo. I hope your tooth feels better soon.

You just zoomed to the top of the prayer list.  We'll pray for wisdom for your doctors, too. 

My best escape from the stress of waiting is to lose myself in a juicy novel.  You can wrap the cover in plain paper so that you don't have to explain it to the boys.

Hi Jo!

You said "tooth pulled" as in "tooth extraction"?
I HATE EXTRACTIONS!!!... I don't like the anesthetic or the pain killers after.

But after a few days, you'll feel sooooo much better!

You are always in my prayer list.
But I will add this to the list.

Good news -- there is nothing they think is cancer.

For now, anyway, but they do want to see me again in 6 months to re-check. Now I just have a minor surgery on the 24th and hopefully whatever they pull from me there is cancer-free, too. Here's to hoping, anyway!

Thank you all SO MUCH for your comments, prayers, and well wishes. I appreciate them all very much. It was a really difficult past 5 days.

Oh, YAY! So glad for you, Rena! Now for the other thing... my hysto was the best thing! Very nice. If it's recommended, don't stress.

That is great news Rena!!  I am so relieved for you 

[Doug Varrieur]

Happy for you Rena :-) Here's a cherry from my book The Cherry Tree..... "Don't worry worry till worry worries you" ;-)

[Andrea]

I'm so happy for your good reports.

[Rena]

Thanks again!

The hysterectomy won't happen unless I get this problem again. Chance are I will. It's rare to reoccur, but I guess I'm one of those lucky ones. Ugh. I'd do the hyst now, but I'm also going to Florida in May and it would be a longer recovery. I had this procedure done in 2010 and the recovery was easy, so I hope it's the same this time around.

But the mammo stuff is definitely good news. With my mom being adopted in the 40s and me not really knowing much of family history, it's always scary when these sort of things come up.

Thanks again, everyone!
