My ultrasound was negative...I have to have my appendix out. It is swollen and appears rather large but that is the mass she felt. My ovaries are normal, my uterus is normal.
 
My pap smear shows some pre cancerous cells. Which will be treated with cryotherapy. I can still get pregnant! As soon as this is taken care of...we are starting IVF. No more waiting...kind of feel like I am on borrowed time.
 
Doc recommended a hysterectomy following childbirth. I told him it was a done deal. I only want one more kid, so they can have my uterus. I will be done with it.
 
So, instead of waiting until the beginning of next year. We will start as soon as we get the okay!
 
I still have a PAP result from the second opinion doctor. Who I like better than my current GYN but, i suspect it will say the same thing.
 
I get the results for the CT tomorrow and that will just firm up the diagnosis.
 
Woohoo! Come join me on Cloud NINE!!!

    I am so happy to hear this -- what wonderful news!

    secretlife...champagne is so in order.

    MissMimi...thanks for all the confetti

    I have also decided to change doctors. The doctor that sent me in to this panic whirlwind did not know what she was doing and you would think she would use more caution when talking to someone about cancer. I know that she is thinking about the long-term and ridding this from my body forever but, she created a week of me being totally stressed out. When it didn't turn out as bad as she first thought. Which I am grateful for but this week has been hell.

    I have my first IVF appt. next week! I have to do all the pre-screening stuff. So, I am going to get that out of the way.

  • secretlife said on Apr 04, 2008....
    i dont blame you one bit.
    i'd be looking for a different doc myself, but first calling the old doctor's office and making sure she knows just what kind of week she's cost you....

    Now having gone through hell the past week and had more objects in your snatch than most do in a life time do you appreciate and value life just that little bit better?? (being a smart ass here)

    I WANT TO GIVE YOU A HUGE KISS AND A HUGE HUG AND HAPPY HAPPY DANCE

    I am so glad, phew!!!!!

    Go get thee up the duff!
  • pickersplock said on Apr 04, 2008....
    That's wonderful news!
    I'm so happy for you!
  • vacantmind said on Apr 04, 2008....

    secretlife...I sent her a nasty email. She can have it in writing. I was so mad! You just don't do that to a person.

    Eilan...Woo-Hoo is right!

    Lucy...I feel so much better! I did the happy dance earlier too!

    pickersplock...Thank you...I am so happy right now, I can't even explain it in words.

  • Lucytorial said on Apr 04, 2008....
    I was thinking of writing you this huge! letter via email this week and kept having this feeling of holding back a little longer, waiting just another day.

    This is why.... I'd report that bitch to the medical board.

    Hey with IVF do go nuts on drugs??? I think a little about it of course its a problem I have to sort out still, secret knows about it.  Just wondering what its like?
  • vacantmind said on Apr 04, 2008....
    I will document the whole process. I have a unique issue. Most women only produce one egg normally. I have been known to produce multiple eggs on my own. Which I am currently doing! So, I may opt for a NC-IVF which is no meds. I have to see what the docs recommendations are. But, my ultrasound showed I had produced more than one egg this month. Of course, twins run really high in my family! I don't want a litter!
  • Lucytorial said on Apr 04, 2008....
    Geez your a bloody bun oven!!


  • vacantmind said on Apr 04, 2008....
    Yep, my kids are 16, 15, 14, and 13. Never had trouble getting pregnant. Had trouble with making it stop!

  • vacantmind said on Apr 04, 2008....

    Lucy...they are scheduling me for Monday morn to remove that nasty appendix! YAY! Maybe that will take away the pain I have been complaining about for years!

    Fallyn...Yes, YAY!!! is how I feel today!

  • Fallyn said on Apr 04, 2008....
    vacant. *grin* it's all i could say that could capture how glad i am for you. :P
     
    i mean....appendix SUCKS.....but it's such a relief.
  • Twylarants said on Apr 04, 2008....
    Wheeee!!  Great Guggamugga!!!  Yahooo!!!
    That stupid doctor must be the sister of my old doctor.  She was an alarmist, too.  What the hell's the matter with them?  Don't they have any people skills at all?
    I'm so happy for you Vacant...you should have your appendix bronzed and mounted in a shadow box!



  • CreativeWoman said on Apr 04, 2008....
    HOW WONDERFUL!!!! Congratulations vacant!  I'll keep praying that you'll be blessed with healing and a sweet healthy baby.  :-)

  • vacantmind said on Apr 04, 2008....

    Fallyn...I am with you...the appendix thing sucks but I will take it!

    Twyla...Bronzed huh? Maybe I will just keep it in a jar and everytime the doctors jump the gun, I will just look at it and be reminded.

    CW...Thanx...I am setting all my appointments for In-Vitro. It is so exciting!

  • Lucytorial said on Apr 04, 2008....
    If you have twins... ones mine??? huh??? that'd work???? 
  • vacantmind said on Apr 05, 2008....

    Lucy...I think my hubby would be quite upset...he would feel like we got more for the money. Like somehow we pulled one over on the Fertility Specialist.

    Of course, you are being way nicer than my sister who is hoping for triplets!

  • lfbno7 said on Apr 05, 2008....
    wah, wah, wah, wah .... here it comes. awww, how cute. don't forget to burp the baby, that's what a lot of those wahs mean. you don't like to sleep, do you? that's a thing of the past. make the baby be good, and make it do its chores and not rule the roost. triplets? oh boy, if you get triplets you are going to lose all control of your life. those triplets will have you hopping and you'll be crying yourself, for supernanny.

    I am very happy for you on all counts. ;-)
  • vacantmind said on Apr 05, 2008....

    Lfbno7...I am a gluten for punishment I guess. Triplets would be a scary deal but man those babies would be awesome!

    Ed...Its' awesome! I am so happy.

    Alyss...Thanx!

  • Trinov said on Apr 05, 2008....
    Hi, I'm really glad to hear this, and I think a second opinion is a requirement when dealing with such issues.
  • vacantmind said on Apr 05, 2008....
    Trinov...I agree..that woman had me in turmoil for a week. That's just wrong and if i had just accepted what she was saying I may have been in a really bad situation. I wonder how many people get treatment for cancer or other serious illness when it isn't really necessary. That is a scary thought!
  • tbs230 said on Apr 05, 2008....
    vacantmind, I'm so happy to hear you're doing alright. And a baby?? Really, congrats, I'm keeping my fingers crossed!
  • Mamie said on Apr 05, 2008....
    THANK YOU GOD FOR PRAYERS ANSWERED! THANK YOU GOD FOR A MIRACLE WITH HER NAME ON IT, EVEN IF IT WAS HER SCREEN NAME...YOU ROCK!!

  • vacantmind said on Apr 05, 2008....

    tbs230...Thank You and yes, baby plans are in the making! YIPEE!!!

    Mamie...LOL. Prayers were answered, without a doubt. Now, for one more little miracle. Complete with ten fingers and ten toes. I am all geared up in baby mode today!
