Had apt with GI surgeon yesterday.  I am 90% healed.  I've had no complications so far.  No indication of adhesions or anything.  Round 4 of chemo coming up Monday.  Got to find out if onc is planning on a scan next week.  Hopefully he is.

Stay safe!

    Wonderful

    That is great news and no adhesions is great because that can be a source of problems.  Sounds like an encouraging appointment.  Good luck on Monday.

    Thank you, Kim!  It was a really good apt.  I love my surgeons.  They are so caring.  One of my surgeons told me two things 1: Strong body and mind will get you thru chemo. 2: You got me forever, know that.  Anything you need just let me know.
