Biopsy Results Update

Hey guys,

    12 weeks out from my treatment and had my Biopsy Tuesday.  The waiting was excutiating and mentally I was a wreck.  Now I am in tears of joy because the biopsy results came back as just scar tissue.  Not sure how many they took but they all came back as scar tissue.  Thank you all for helping me get through this because each time my mind went to the bad place you helped take that feeling away and gave me hope that it could just be scar tissue.  The surgeon wants to see me back in three months to do it again (and damn they hurt) but she said there is a mass where the tumor was.  She did take a biopsy of that area and it came back as scar tissue so I am praying that that will not change for the next biopsy.  I suppose it may be a little easier to breathe next time as I got the first all clear.  I am sure the feeling of worry will never comepletely go away but this is the best news and birthday present I could have received.
