2 Days left for my ultrasound. I can't wait.   How come you don't think this is not cancer? My doctor never said it was.  She really didn't say anything she just said she will know more when I get my ultrasound  done......I pray everyday......Im just nervous cause I had different symptons than you did. I just can't wait.  Im really hoping  everything is okay.....

Yes it is for the lump under my tongue, tomorrow morning at 7:30 a.m.  I am quite nervous but glad to be getting it over with.  Please say a prayer that it turns out to be benign.

They took 5 tubes of blood and said they would have the results in 3-4 days.  Thanks for asking.  What's your appointment tomorrow for, the lump under your tongue?

[suzi-q]

Bip, I would say that I pee two times an hour if I am by a toilet.  It isn't burning and it is normal color.  I know that I have fibroids and I know they press my bladder.  Your situation sounds similar.  IT IS NOT CANCER. I know that there is no convincing you otherwise right now.  Just like me and my mouth.  I even showed my daughters's pediatrician yesterday and he say it looks like nothing.  Yes, I felt better for a little while and now I am freaking over the "C" word again.  My appt. is for 7:30 tomorrow morning.  I want this over with.  HANG IN THERE!!!

Raine, thanks for your input....how did your blood work go today?

Thank you so much.  You know all of us think of th worst. Im just concern cause Im bloaty, and I urinate alot I mean alot. My uterus is putting pressure on my bladder........Im not emptying out my bladder all the way out......Ill let everyone know when I get my results.......

Bip,

Having an englarged uterus is not that uncommon.  My good friend's wife has one.  My sister-in-law had her uterus removed due to fibroids several months ago.  It's not a big deal if you had to get that done.  I believe you already have kids, so you don't need your uterus.  I'm not saying that you are gonna need yours removed because I'm not your doctor.  But if you did, I'm just saying that it's not a big deal.  It's better actually cuz then you don't have to ever worry about getting uterine cancer.  And I don't think you have cancer.  You are much too young.  I worry too when it comes to things like this, so I know what you are going through.  For me, humor helps a lot.  I joke around a lot.  I hope you feel better and I will pray for you.  Let us know how your appointment goes.

I talk to cathy the nurse.  She said Im not going in cause my uterus is enlarge. she is giving me a ultrasound cause Im bloaty, and urinateing alot.  I told her I was scared and she said its so many things could be causeing this......I think Ill be ok.  Once I get my results I know its not cancer Ill be ok and feel better.......Thank you so much for helping me.......Let me know tomorrow how your appt. is. I know you are going to be fine...... Ill pray for us.YOU ARE SO SWEET TO ME AND THANK YOU FOR HELPING ME GO THROUGH THIS..

I told her I was scared it was cancer.  She said everybody gets scared.  My grandma had ovarian cancer in the 60s so Im in a risk.   Im praying.  Do you think it is? I have symptons of cancer? Why do I look bloaty, and it's pressure dowm my bladder?

[suzi-q]

She probably just wants to see if the fibroids grew and if they are affecting your bladder and causing your bloating.  Did you ask her if it could be cancer?  I just feel that since you have been getting regular check-ups if there was anything of urgent need it would have been done already.  Keep yourself busy the next two days...the days will go faster that way.  Today I am going to visit a friend of mine in NY (I am in NJ).  Hopefully it will make my day go quicker for tomorrow is my appt for the oral surgeon.  It is a 7:30 appt in the morning. I just hope this isn't a consultation and then I will have to go back again.  I want the thing diagnosed NOW!  I totally understand how the waiting drives us crazy, but it will make us stronger people.  Hang in there.  We are in this together!
