I'm not worried, just bummed

[serene]

I met with the surgeon today, who, not surprisingly, wants to do surgery. They figured out what kind of tumor I have, and the best recommendation they give is to take out the thyroid lobe. Next Thursday morning, I'll go into the hospital for the surgery, and then they'll admit me to watch me overnight. Should be fine by Monday, and they'll do pathology stuff on the tissue they remove, to make sure there's no cancer. The odds are low, but not zero, that cancer's what we're talking about. I'll let you know.

Much love,

Surgery of any kind really bites...horribly inconvenient if nothing else. I was bummed too when I had to have a short term stay in the hospital a couple years ago. *hugs*.

Well, nuts to that. I don't know how you like your recovery processes to look, but I'd be happy to bring over tomatoes any time.

Hope all goes well and you get the best possible result with the least possible inconvenience and most rapid recovery. (That ought to cover it) ;-)

"The vast majority of people should be cured of this cancer."

I hope that they figure out that there's no cancer, but if there is, I very much like that quote.

Best wishes for a complete and speedy recovery...

may the surgery be successful and may this be something you get to put behind you and not worry about at all in the future.

Durn it all, I was hoping this would be one quick biopsy and it'd be done. Ah well... good luck and here's hoping it's nothing.
