Biopsy

July 31st, 2006
Ok I am in a lot of pain right now. He thinks that it is a tumor and he did a core biopsy which by the way was great...yeah right! Ha! He gave me some local anesthetic and then cut my skin twice with a razor blade. Ouch! Then he got a gun type thing...yeah it was some kind of thing...which shot into my skin and got samples of tissue. He patched it up and as I was walking out of the door I look down and blood was seeping through my pants. Did I mention they were my brand new white maternity pants??? I go back in and a huge blood clot had passed through the cuts. I know that's TMI and gross but hey it happened! He said if the results are negative then they are going to do surgery as soon as they think its OK for me to be sedated with this pregnancy. If everything is good then he will wait until I have my c-section which I am crossing my fingers to happen. He said that its rare for it to be cancerous but he just wants to be on the safe side.
To make things worse we are in Texas, in July, and our air conditioner went out! Bryan is in Tig doing his internship and my mom came here with me....we had to sleep in the 100 degree heat in our house! Ugh!

Another Note:
The first Dr I went to in FF was thinking this was scar tissue or a lipoma. Dr Gayle said possibly a lipoma or tumor. The surgeon said tumor or cyst but he thinks more or less a tumor. I know everything will be fine. Either way it will be taken out. It is a pain going to the Dr and not to mention I paid out of pocket for the first one. I had an appt with Gayle on the 10th but I rescheduled for the same day I have to go back to the surgeon. That's on the 14th. I guess we will see what's in store soon!
