ME: Post MRI, first results - 4:16 PM

Ok, Dr Timmens the oncologist, who we have been waiting for all afternoon, is now not coming until 6:00ish... Suzi, Patrice and Karen who arrived here faithfully at 12:00 had not planned to stay that long, but extended their time so that they can be here with me when decisions need to be made. Well, we had a good time, ate and drank and did some yoga, and I even finally had a shower. Almost no more pain. I am feeling better than yesterday.

And as we were venting our frustration over this time delay, in walks the other head OBGYN with entourage, and gave us an intermediate result from the tests. They are "reassuring". The blood test has shown no indicator for any cancer, which doesn't rule cancer out, but makes it much more unlikely. The cyst indeed grow out of the two ovaries. Whether or not they can advice to wait with surgery, depends on Dr Timmens' assessment to the chances there being any.

So tonight we will know what he thinks as he interprets the MRI. Will keep you posted.

much love, always
Tomma
