I saw my gyn/onc. and he felt a mass during the physical. I am scheduled for a CT scan tomorrow morning and they did another CA-125 to see what has happened in two weeks to that number. He is agressive minded and wants to get on this ASAP. I have has pain in my left groin and he thinks that is a growing lymph gland. CT will tell. I should have the results Friday. The oncologist agreed.

    The Wait
    That waiting is just the frosting on the cake for me. I can never stop my mind. I am hoping that this is just another bump in the road that you will get through. Glad you have such a caring doctor. I will be waiting here to hear your news. Hugs to you, Cindy

    Dearest Saundra,

    Durn it ~ Durn It ~ Durn it ... I was hoping the tamoxifen would continue to hold the cancer back! So sorry to read this latest update. But what a great Dr you have to check you out so good and jump to a ct scan and another ca125 ~ that has to be comforting in itself. Will someone call with the results or do you have another appointment scheduled? I will be watching for updates please.

    Of course you are always in my prayers ~ I know God will continue to keep you strong in this next leg of the battle ~ for He is Good all the time.

    Prayers ♥ Hugs Bonnie

    Friday
    Bonnie, I will call his office in Dallas on Friday for the results. The CT was done here in Midland, and he'll pick up the written report on the internet in Dallas. If he decides he personally wants to see the film, it will be next week before I know (which sometimes he does) because they will be mailed. I am calm and under the care of the Great One. Besides the peach tree is ripe and I am busy peeling and freezing peaches.
    LOL. Saundra

    Hi Saundra: There is always hope. Had my first chemo yesterday. Feeling ok today but I'm sure tomorrow will be another story. I'll be thinking of you and all the other wonderful people I have met on this site.

    So Sorry
    Dear Saundra,

    Praying the mass is not cancerous and rejoicing that you know our Lord!

    I will be getting a PETscan next Friday to see just what is going on with my thymus gland, inconclusive CT report on my liver, colon, etc, etc.

    My Thursday morning Bible study is Beth Moore's Living Beyond Yourself - Exploring the Fruit of the Spirit. Yesterday the lesson ended with .....and allow Him to minister to others through your misery.

    As He comforts us, He leads us to share His comfort. I am so thankful we have this support group where we can vent, cry, laugh, comfort, discuss, and be energized!! LOVE YOU!!

    In His Grip,
    Libby

    Prayers coming your way
    I'm praying for you too, Libby. Along with all the rest of the warriors that are back on chemo or about to be. I am still waiting on the word from the CT and now it looks like it will be Monday before I hear anything.

    Sometimes the Lord calms the storm; And sometimes He lets the storm rage and calms His child.

    Hi Saundra,
    I know how hard the wait is,I hope it's good news and you can rest easy.

    I loved your comment about God, I read it a few times and it gave me a lump in my throat, it's so true.
    I'm going to copy it and keep it by the computer to read when I'm really feeling stressed.

    Thank you, and be well.

    (((Saundra)))). So sorry that you have to go into battle again!
    Seems like so many are going through new challenges right now! We are also having a rash of recurrances and recurrance scares on the Uterine Cancer Board for those with the more aggressive UPSC. Last month almost everyone was coming out of treatment and in remission, and now there must be a half-dozen new confirmed or suspected recurrances. Frightening to see the high percentages, but in a strange way comforting to have others who can understand the fear and disappointment when remission ends or your latest chemo lets you down. You remain in my prayers, Saundra, as well us the other teal warriors,
