Monday's results

The results are in from Monday's ultrasound and mammograms, they've been reviewed by the doctors, and there is no evidence of recurrence. YEA! They did discover a "significant" collection of fluid, which sounds better than the more official "cystic lesion" that they want to remove. So on October 30, they'll puncture with a long needle and drain it. That's the plan. If it's not drainable or looks suspicious, they'll send the tissue off for more analysis. Still it feels like there's a light at the end of tunnel. More troubling is my follow-up appointment on Nov 6 with the "weight study" oncologist. I need to lose 15 pounds. Anybody know any good "dark chocolate" diets?

I'll be thinking of you on the 30th.
