The Skinny.

Just got back from the Oncologist. Can I say he is the biggest JERK, A-HOLE, !**@*@ EVER!
(that is a whole other story and someday when you want to listen to this girl CUSS up a storm ask me about him and his lovely bed side manners and professionalism. Definitely writing a letter.)

Good news- the grown is gone.. not there.. the MRI shows nothing- even though the CT scan shows a growth- but the MRI trumps the CT- so good news I suppose.

Bad news- I now have to go to a Pelvic Pain Specialist at the U of U.

Even more terrible news- the specialist is doing a HUGE favor for the oncologist- by getting me in on October 29th. So what am I supposed to do now? Sit in wretched pain every day until then? I don't think so.
So I called my regular OB/GYN for an appointment for some help with which way to go.. what to do... a light at the end of the pain tunnel. I just want some answers! This is not normal. I can't even function half the time like a normal adult- or handle holding my baby for very long... or just plain sit up for long.. Sorry having a vent session here. And if this blog sounds funky- its because I'm totally drugged up right now! And so now I waiting for a call back from my doctor at McKay Dee for some much needed advice and assurance. Will update when I know more.

On a side note- THANKS to all of my lovely friends and neighbors and family who have been spoiling us with dinner-treats-babysitting-flowers and well wishing.. its seriously means so much to know you are loved.

XOXO-
Jess

Are we still for our friday night frenzy at Walmart? I think what you need in your life right now is a little Edward to ease your pain!
P.S. I get chills just thinking about this book!

continued prayers sweetie. I hope they are able to do something soon to help you with the pain, I couldn't imagine trying to live life until the end of October doubled over in pain every day.

Great news but so sorry about the pain, how annoying and how frustrating to deal with! Hey, i wrote Timmy a letter but need an address...can you send it to my email at: heathpalm7@gmail.com? That'd be so great, thanks:) And feel better!!

Kristy said...

At least one less worry with the growth not showing up but it really sucks not knowing anything. And if you haven't noticed already, you are definitely loved around her so don't hesitate to let us know when you need something.

BTW Love the blog change!

I'm so sorry they haven't figured anything out yet. I'm glad that it looks like nothing too horrible, although I'm sure you feel horrible. Hang in there, if there is anything we can do let me know.
