To begin to beat this and now cancer
Great news!!
My nodes were swollen because I have mono-- not that I ever thought that I would celebrate that but when the derm called and it was not cancer she told me to go to my family doc this morning and that is what they suspect (they did a rapid strept test but that was negative)-- but whatever it is it was not cancer! I did have another mole tested though while I was there when the nodes were discovered and it is pre-cancerous but I haev had a couple of those and she just went ahead and cut that out a couple of days ago (it wa the least of my worries given teh nodes and I was pretty sure that it was not cancer-- since I know what the malignant ones look like now) and the margins were clear on it. so to the ones waiting on their results becasue of weird moles-- yes I have had a malignant melanoma but I have also had precancer ones and nothing came of those so have hope. I am so so glad that I had you all to help me through and to encourage me to tell my husband.
Oddly at some point and maybe it was your encouragement a calm came over me and I did not even want to see a drink during this. Let's hope it continues cancer is bad but really if I was to keep drinking and it got worse (which all alcoholics eventually do as it is a progressive disease) I would have been killig myslef slowly instead of more quickly. Plus destroying my family.
Again thanks-- I know there will be troubles and struggles but you all have really helped.
