Results from my recent lymph node biopsy: [View all]

https://www.democraticunderground.com/100220893845

And there were new findings: 3 lymph nodes outside my right lung had shown up. Two were considered suspicious for nodal metastases. The third one is larger and may be amenable to ultrasound tissue sampling if clinically indicated.


A few minutes ago, I finally got the results of the biopsy: NEGATIVE FOR MALIGNANCY.

I was so sure the report would tell me that I had yet another malignant spot inside me.....But NO!

I am in the clear. Finally something has gone the way I wanted.

Thank you all for standing by me during this tumultuous time. I love my friends!
