    Sorry You're Hurting
    Glad to hear you'll be getting top notch help. I would think that the PET would be much more accurate than the MRI as far as determining whether or not a mass is cancerous, just as I would think the MD Anderson docs would be more knowledgeable than the local docs. I hope that you have answers soon, and the treatment to resolve your pain isn't too hard on you. You know we're all pulling for you - even folks who don't post. Do well.

    Hondo,

    My thoughts and prayers go with you. I hope you get the same diagnosis you got at MD Anderson.

    Praying for you man, somehow I believe you are a little more special than most people, you are an inspiration, and as they say in England a "star".

    if you can't believe the folks at Mayo, who can you believe?
    Sounds like you made the right choice.

    Thank you everyone
    I am sorry I have not been posting to much, just can’t seam to get the strength I need to get up out of bed sometimes.

    The Doc’s here had me on Oxycotton for the passed 4or 5 months and I decided last Monday I had enough of that drug so I stopped taking it cold turkey. I now know that, that was the wrong thing for me to do. But anyway I am now off the drug but still having a few leftover side affects.

    I am so happy to have friends like you all here on CSN. We leave on Wednesday for Mayo and I know I don’t go there alone because the prayer of my family here goes with me. I will do my best to give you all a report on my visit, thanks again to all my family here on CSN

    Always
    Prayers for you and your family during this trying time. As Kent said Mayo's is top notch.
    The small town clinic thing cant be agreed on more here. That was why U of Chicago was my first choice.
    Again Wishes & Prayers that you find the problems.

    Prayers
    Hondo:

    I didn't read this till tonight. You and your family are certainly in my prayers. You're the biggest reason I joined this network. When I first read of your journey and the faith you've exhibited; it was just so wonderful. And your thoughts and prayers coming my way since I lost Charlie. I pray that they find the source of your pain and that you find relief. Prayers all the way!

    Hondo,

    Did you go to Jacksonville? I have been going to UAB and my wife is pestering me to go to Mayo but I really am satisfied with UAB. Don't like the dianosis but happy that someone finally was able to tell me what is wrong. Would like your thoughts. My email is dennygreen@hotmail.com

    Thanks
