All is not well III

OK, back from the valley of doubt and misery. We went to get a second opinion at the University of Bonn, and they were pretty optimistic, said that I may have had this tumor for years. That is, if it is a tumor, the biopsy has been re-scheduled since I want it to be made at the university clinic. I've not started crying today, which is a big step forward from Friday. I'll be working on Friday, if the biopsy is not scheduled for then. Best not to let a minor nuisance interrupt my daily plans. My significant other is currently listening to some weird radio play about "Marrying Concrete" - yes, the building material. I'll keep you guys posted. Thanks for all the support you have been giving me. I'll continue to read everything. And yes, I've started a diary. The offline-kind, though I am considering a blog.

Its likely to be benign mate. The hardest part is the waiting. If youve had a tumor for years thats a good thing because it means its even more likely to be benign... Just try and forget about it.

Wow, sorry to hear what you been through. I've gone though something similar twice in the last 15 years, where doctors said what I had looked like a tumor even after using every imaging technique they had, ultimatly a biopsy proved otherwise. They CAN be wrong and I hope they are in your case. Stay positive, and best of luck.

Years ago I bought a Squirrel Nut Zippers CD and on the back is a photograph of people sitting around a table, probably drinking and partying and on the table is a whole pile of different items, one of them is a little model tomb stone that says on it "Relax, it's later than you think". I've found this to be true and helpful to think on many times over the years.

That sounds good. Keeping optimistic is probably for the better.

Sounds promising; glad to hear you all got a second opinion on the matter as well, that's very important with something serious.

Hi Sebastian, Hoping you do stay on the plateau a while. If you do get to the point where you start hearing about "probabilities" of progression, or treatment response outcome statistics, from your oncologist, please, please : do read the article by Stephen Jay Gould to which there is a link in the other Lounge message I sent in reply to your first message. It's immensely helpful, imho. Best, Bill

Well, those are good news... Once one doctor told me that me and my couple had got a specific cancer that was a sexual disease... Supposedly we had that cancer in the third stadium so it meant that it was in the terminal stage... After searching into the Internet about that disease I almost puke... It was terrible, degenerative and it was mortal... Well, after 5 days we knew that he was completely wrong... Imagine those 5 days. Anyway, the doctors miss their judgments, they are people... Let's hope everything will be OK, and that soon you will be able to tell us that you are right. Warm wishes of good luck! :rose:
