@#$%&!!!!!

My sister just called and apparently there are two spots on my PETscan. Son of a BI*TCH!!! Crying

She said that it could be (and she expects it to be) a false uptake. It's just not what I want to deal with. I really prayed that everything would be clear. I feel sick and numb right now. Why me?

One is a lymph node in my neck and the other is at the base of my tongue. The lymph node could be reacting to something else (a cold, infection, etc) but the tongue one worries me a little more. At the very least I'll have to have another scan.

Fcuk Cancer. I fcuking hate you with everything that I am.

I leave for a business trip Wednesday morning and then up to Maine for Easter. I have to get some kind of answer by then so I have to hurry and get everything done today so I can be off tomorrow. I had one doctor booked at 8:00 am anyway and my sister was able to get me into the other one after that so a day of doctors.. wooo hoo.I hate stress. Why me? I am so beside myself I can't even think straight. I am sure I am not making sense.

    I hope when you meet with the doctor that it turns out to be minor and easily fixed.
