Hey guys,
Huge weight lifted off my shoulders this week. Had a doctors appointment yesterday - post-op appt. In October I had to have a minor surgery/procedure to have some of my stomach and intestinal lining removed. I've recently been diagnosed with a stomach/intestinal disease. They're still not positive exactly which one it is, they're still narrowing it down and putting me on lots of different meds and switching doses and all that. Anyways, they found a couple tumors during the surgery. I got the results of the biopsies back yesterday and they all came back benign...NOTHIGN WAS CANCEROUS! This is a huge relief. For over a month the doctors were convinced it was cancer and we've been talking treatment options and everything. Hence me putting my life on hold (I quit my job and decided to wait for a while before applying for other jobs) I'm still not completely out of the clear. I have to go for more testing Dec 5th to finally figure out exactly which disease I have. They all have different treatments, but they're not as bad as what it could have been. So thanks so much for everyone sending positive thoughts, I really think it helped a lot. And i'm sorry for being MIA for a while, I just had a hard time dealing with some of this and kinda needed the time to myself a little. You guys are all awesome and I love you guys. Happy Thanksgiving!
