Hello Everyone,
I just got back from seeing the surgeon. Bottom line is not enough info to confirm growth is cancer. so a biopsy is scheduled for Wedensday, unless radiologist wants a different type and then it will be Friday. It will take a few days for results.
Waiting now for CEA blood test results. Either way, I will be having surgery to fix the hernia. Anyone have experience with that?
Hope you are all having a good day,
Judy

    I am hoping for the best results for you. I haven't had experience with hernia surgery, but I know there are lots here that have; I am sure someone will pipe up.

    Praying it's a no!
    Well, I'm sorry you have to wait, Judy, but at least it's not confirmed cancer. Take that victory and run with it for as long as you can!

    My father had a hernia years ago and did very well with the surgery.

    Let us know what's going on as soon as you know!

    *hugs*

    Yes, I had a hernia repair
    Yes, I had a hernia repair right below my belly button. IT ended up being bigger then the surgeon anticipated, but all went well, and I was back to work in 3-4 weeks.
