Hey all~ This is Slammer aka Fmsamos in Cali~ Well, had routine CT scan in early May and well now back to my oncologist in Sacramento. Yes, Dr. Fisher found something on that CT (called immediatly says get blood work) and I have already had a visit w/ him & did a PET scan on Friday- so here I go again...2 small spots on my liver, and a 2 inch mass near my cecum.(Have had the bowel-resection and all that chemo remember)~ He asked if I was in pain, well I wasn't but hell now this weekend I have some. Anyway will do follow up w/ a Dr John Lee MD- Surgery/ Oncology- next week and we will know more then. Timing sucks Because I really have felt good~ well I have faith & strength and that ever lasting positive attitude- so This too I shall over come! I'll be in touch because I have a few questions for OUR group here after I get the real deal~ You know???
Hugs to all of you other Semi-Colons out there-and new ones-- you know who you are... Livestrong gang, Sincerely, Amy in No. Cali~~
I talked to God today............as I always do!

    I'm so sorry you are going through this again after 5 years. I'm at a loss for words and that doesn't happen very often! We'll be waiting here for your questions and will be here for comforting words. You're not hangin' there alone.

    Sorry to hear this
    That's not what you wanted to hear I'm sure. It sounds like they may have caught it early so that is in your favor. You have those 3 things that you need and worked for you.
    Best wishes

    Kill it!!!
    Yep. Grab that hoe & chop it's head off again! I swear, cancer is like a cockroach--they can live up to 9 days after their heads have been removed... I'll be praying for you.

    Hugs,
