To answer a question to a Michigander friend, The whole thing from start to finish was less than 2-2.5 months me thinks. I watched it grow for a few weeks hoping it would be smart and go away on it's own. LOL... My Sherry says 'Dream -on!' LOL
For now I made a trip to a NEW Doctor. It was for a consult on a body scan for Merkel cell carcinoma. My uneducated understanding is they are looking to find if this 'tumor' was the mama or just a child. The way I understand it if it was the mama, then all is well and it is gone. if it is found other places (he is concerned about the lungs), then there is need for concern.
He seems to be planning to schedule radiation on my face no matter what they find. I hope I am misunderstanding. LOL
Anyway we are now waiting by the phone for the scheduled scan. Evidently he doesn't know if I am a cat or a dog , because he is calling it a PET SCAN. I will let you know....
I am wondering if I am falling into the Doctor Trap that many of us OLD people get into. I told my sweetheart today that if this keeps up they will destroy my possibility of hiking 'the trail' before I die or live in front of a TV. Meaning, I need at least 10 months clear to walk the entire 2190+ miles.
YEAH I KNOW, I KNOW, the last time I only needed a few days to tell me I could not start in January. LOL And made it only 25 miles. HAHA But I still need to try again to tell my Stubborn brain I need to SHUT UP.
Bye y'all
