Guest guest Posted February 22, 2004 Report Share Posted February 22, 2004 The secretary for the surgeon gave me the site when I scheduled with them for the 3rd. It does look impressive but I couldn't get many of the sections to open. I met the faculty though, that was lovely,,*** thank you for thinking of me Fliss. I wish there was some way that they could get a better feel for the cancer. A more difinative diagnosis. If I recall, you said they dont do check ups for markers and such. Have you ever had a MRCP? I think my doc was a little surprised at how it took over the whole panc in 6 months. Must not be something that they see often. I collasped at work on a friday afternoon, mrcp on saturday, ercp tuesday, peg on thursday, discharged saturday with instructions to contact Cincy. I guess the mrcp must have given quite an impression. You do still have a choice Fliss, you are still the only one who knows you. Jim may think he does..but. You know your body and your heart and you can choose when your ready. You will believe in your heart that your are doing the right thing. I beleive in my heart, at this point, I am doing what is necessary to stay alive. To get my life back, that absolutely right. You dont need your tp right away but when you do your going to know everything there is about, you will have faith in the doctor who has cared so well for you, your mind and body will be ready. You will thrive. I am starting to stress on this some and having my pain increase doesn't help matters. I going to travel 800 miles to have major surgery, where there is nobody I know. I will be alone. Its sinking in. Your sons sound delightful and charming. Love Chrissy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 22, 2004 Report Share Posted February 22, 2004 Chrissy, if you could give us an address where people could send cards to you after your surgery, I'm sure a number of us would like to send cards.
