Just a quick post to keep you up to speed.
I think Hubby has solved my mysterious leg pain. He put his inverta-bed in the middle of the family room and had me hang upside down on it. After 5 to 10 minutes, I could walk without limping and loping along. I can't believe how much better it made me feel. Evidently, there is some pinched nerves somewhere, and this treatment reduced the pressure. I got up this morning and "hung" again. It's working!!!! That's my good news.
Now for the not so good news. Just got home from the oncologist's with the results of the biopsy taken last week. Well, kids, here we go again!!!
It seems that I have a different kind of breast cancer in the lymph nodes. It is still considered breast cancer, just not the same kind as I had before. More test results next week will tell us the whole story. In the meantime, the doctor talked about chemo and radiation treatments. He doesn't want to do surgery and hack that crap out of me, 'cause that causes exceptional pain when you're getting radiation. It also causes the whole arm to swell up and hurt like hell.
So, there. I know this is all do-able. It's not nearly as big as the last episode. But I am still stinging from the news. It makes me really mad that this is going on. I have so much I want to get done this summer, and this darn situation is messing up my plans!!!!
Jenna texted me and said she would call me on her lunch hour (as usual), but to call her before that time if I had any news from the doctor. I texted her back with the results. Then I told her that I didn't feel like talking just yet, maybe later. She understood. Then I got thinking, that I informed her of the breast cancer diagnosis in 2013, in an e-mail. Poor kid, gets news like this through technology.
I'll keep ya posted.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
