Showing my scars today...
So as you all know I was diagnoised with another cancer in December. I have been dealing with it and it has been a nightmare. Today they finally (at my demand) took out the uretial (spell) stent that us been beating the crap out of my left kidney, ureater, and bladder since January. I have went through painful treatments trying to get the cancer out of that kidney and there is no other way except to take out the kidney. So today, I requested that. I told my doc I was not living a quality of life and it was time to take it out. Get one big pain over withand move on. He tried to argue about it and I stood up, lifted my shirt to show him the scars left behind by my breast cancer. and I showed him the scar from my complete hysterectomy and said, I have had enough misery. I am done. Take it out and let me go on with my life. He said, ok.
So a left nephrectomy will be on my agenda soon. Sometimes you have to be a lion to handle the beast. Roar on ladies.
Hugs,
Annie
