Still waiting for results from the PET scan. I don't know if its psychological or not, but I feel increased pain in my right side, where the mass is supposed to be. I'm hoping its psychological... :)
In other news, I won't get to see the same gynecologic oncologist that originally performed my surgery. Apparently he is not with the 'group' for my insurance anymore. They referred me to a different person. However, the new doc is one that I saw last year for a second opinion, and I really liked her. So I hope that this change is for the best. I am happy that I have insurance, but I really hate the huge run-a-round and all of the hoops I need to jump through! I have an appointment with her for next Tuesday.
So I'm waiting, and working, and worrying, and wondering what the future holds. Those must be the four "w's" of ovarian cancer! ;)
Continue to remember me in your thoughts and prayers please, and my favorite husband too!

oh man.. you are still waiting, that must be driving you nuts. Waiting is the worst part.
Is the new doctor a gyn oncologist??
Hey, did you hear.. there is a promising new blood test being tested out of Yale. It is said to accurately diagnose OvCa 99% of the time... however, it isn't available yet. I wish they'd hurry up.
Take care... You are in my thoughts every day.
I have to wait to get my scan till April. My one good ovary is aching and i am paranoid, but my professor told me that as long as I am still breathing, not to worry. So, I am taking it a day at a time and enjoy feeling normal again. You are fine, your heart is beating, you are breathing and you can still have good quality of life. Enjoy it! I hate the unknown too, I want to buy an ultrasound just so I can whip it out and make sure nothing is growing anywhere, but that would drive me more nuts probably b/c I would become obsessed. You are in my thoughts and I want to meet you and I will. We will have to get together when we are both healed and have this hurdle behind. Camping anyone?
