The Official Cancer diagnosis Thread
Don't get on much anymore but I would like to share my adventure.
What started with some back pain led to a myelogram (can't have MRI because of pacemaker after heart valve replacement). Myelogram revealed 2 nodules on my thyroid. The left side was virtually gone and the right had a smaller nodule on it. They biopsied the left and found it to be benign but did not biopsy the right. They were going to remove the left side and I told them to take the whole thing because I didn't want annual biopsies on the right and was already hypothyroid. During thyroidectomy had to remove some lymph nodes during the surgery. Specimens were sent to the lab and yesterday, at my one week follow up, was given the news that I have lymphoma. Wednesday I have a PET scan to determine the severity and Thursday I have a minor surgery to install a port to begin chemo asap. At this point haven't spoken with an oncologist and don't know anything but it appears that I am not going to need to spend extra money on shampoo or haircuts for a minute. anywho, if you are praying anyway, slip a little word in for me if you could. Thanks, Jeff EDIT: I started a blog about what's going on: https://jeffbeatscancer.com/ It will have the most current information. Last edited by ShortRoundChief; 06-03-2017 at 11:24 AM..

Not a praying man, so kind thoughts your way.
Now go out and kick that mother****ers ass. Don't turn down any treatment, legal or illegal. Cancer does not have morals, neither should you in it's defeat. |

Prayers will be sent!
Cancer sucks (duh)! My sister had a mole removed from the back of her leg last week and they are now planning to take a lymph node to see how progressed things are from her. That should be happening today so we should know more soon. |
