Just an update...........

First of all I would like to Thank everyone on this site who has taken the time before and after my surgery to express concern and comfort.  I am still reeling a bit from it all and now am battling some depression too that I am fighting tooth and nail.  I go back for my follow up this coming Tuesday and am TRYING to remain calm until then.  No matter what the case scenario with the Dr., I can not grow it back and she can not go back in time either, however I feel obligated to help the next person out who may follow after me.  I have researched away and there is no Dr alive who can LOOK at something and tell whether or not it holds cancer cells.  I am TRYING sooooooooo very hard not to make myself crazier-the past four months of wait and see have taken a toll.  I feel better physically than I have since this all began and am no longer completely exhausted all the time, however the on and off again stabbing hip pain is still there-last night reminded me.  I will be following that problem up with the orthopedic dr who operated on my knee several years back.  I was advised by my sister in law, who went to my cyst surgery with me, that the Dr told her if I was still having the PAIN IN MY BELLY that she wanted to look at my bowel-LMAO.......Sorry If I don't laugh I may just snap......you see I NEVER ONCE told her there was ANY pain in my belly......I told her, STOOD UP in her office and SHOWED her the EXACT location of the pain-IN MY HIP!  So we shall see I guess what the Lord has in store for me next.....I just wanted to take the time to Thank you and all for your concern.
