Biopsy Day - da da dah

I had my biopsy this morning.  I was awake during the procedure, just a little sedated.  I thought the procedure hadn't quite started - I was lying on the table and kept hearing this clicking noise and felt a little flicker, so I asked the doctor about it and he said "you're feeling the flicker because there's a needle about 12+ inches inside you" and then he told the nurse to up my drug (can't remember the name of it) and that was the last thing I remember LOL!  So I pretty much slept in recovery, got up and ate lunch and slept some more and when I was released I came home and slept some more.  I'm feeling ok, just missing my family!

My sisters are so awesome!  I told them not to come and that I can handle all these doctors and tests by myself.  I have to admit when I'm actually sitting in the office or the hospital though I wish they were here.  I know that I will need them later when and if I have to have surgery, so I got this!   And I have some really awesome friends you have my back!  I'm being looked after and taken care of :-)

Justified?

I'm almost at the end of the week of the worst day of my life, but I'm beginning to think that won't be my worst.  I've seen one doctor and another doctor and another doctor and none of them have been able to tell me 100% I do not have cancer.  I'm scheduled to have a biopsy next week.  In the meantime, I can truly say I know what it means to be stressed out.  I really don't feel like doing anything.  I've talked to my immediate family and a few close friends, but I really don't want to spread this news around until I really know whats going on.  The process is taking such a long time.  I guess I have to adapt the phrase "no news is good news".  Truth - I'm not feeling that.  Oh and my healthy eating has been thrown out the window a little.  Eat a salad or eat fried chicken wings.  Fried chicken wings with hot sauce, you may have cancer!
