I listened to what said (call the nurse) she's great!...asked her the questions about which test I had ( it was the CA19-9 test) normals 0-to 37) but having your information took a LOT out of the bite...AND one good joke deserves another...see below...and all the rest of my fellow PSCer in the club that replied...thanks for your support!!...What a great club (that I don't want to belong to, but appreciate ever so much! And yes rule #1 is now a given!!!! It was a better day and I'LL away take someone with me when getting test results back!

Don PSC /UC 11-08....!

PS I hope and I apologize if the joke offends anyone...the best part was that this was in my e-mail yesterday from the guy that was my best man in my wedding 28 years ago and he didn't even know about my CA19-9 test results!

Putting Your Affairs In Order.The doctor, after an examination, sighed and said, 'I've some bad news. You have cancer, and you'd best put your affairs in order.' The man was shocked, but managed to compose himself and walk into the waiting room where his son had been waiting. 'Well Jeff, he said to his son, we men celebrate when things are good, and we celebrate when things don't go so well. In this case, things aren't well. I have cancer. Let's head to the club and have a few drinks.' After 3 or 4 martinis, the two were feeling a little less somber. There were some laughs and more martinis. They were eventually approached by some of man's old friends, who were curious as to what the two were celebrating. The man told his friends they were drinking to his impending end. 'I've been diagnosed with AIDS.' The friends were aghast, gave the man their condolences and beat a hasty retreat. After the friends left, the

man's son leaned over and whispered, 'Dad, I thought you said you were dying of cancer, and you just told your friends you were dying of AIDS! Why did you do that? 'Because I don't want any of those jerks to try sleeping with your mother after I'm gone.

And THAT, my friends, is what is called, 'Putting Your Affairs In Order."

Hi All,

Because I've been feeling great because of the URSO & cholestyramine he put me on two weeks ago....and I get.....(That I might have cancer) along with my PSC and in my bile ducts....something to do with a blood test they did and my count was 300+? After my Dr. said that.... my brain went into comatose state...and I think heard the words CT scan with die and exploratory surgery.... Mayo clinic..yada, yada yada!
