Now she's telling her that she wants to operate AGAIN, and take out ALL the lymph nodes because there was a trace of cancer, in one of the ones removed.
We've had an overall great experience at MD Anderson, but this surgeon can't seem to get her **** straight!
Sorry to hear it
Prayers up for healing and recovery!!

Tina had a consultation with another surgeon, at MD Anderson last week.
She spent almost two hours with her PA. The PA confirmed the first surgeon's suggestions, but took the time to explain WHY she should take out the rest of the lymph nodes.
Second surgery this Wednesday!
This one is a bit more invasive, and will require an overnight stay, and a considerably longer recovery.
We were almost to the end of the tunnel, then they put the train in reverse!Comment

It's just frustrating, just like any other situation that doesn't yield immediate results.
Thank you, and everyone else, for your continued prayers!Comment

Sorry I haven't updated in a while.
In the second surgery, they removed 9 more lymph nodes, 2 of which tested positive for cancer, so we made the right decision to have it done.
Last week, she went in to get set up for radiation. They put 5 small tattooed dots on her, to mark the areas they want to treat, and then made some kind of cast that holds her still, during the treatment. Wednesday, she went in for what they call a dry run, where they double check everything. The doctor was happy with it all, so they asked her if she wanted to go ahead and start the radiation that day, instead of the next day ... so she did.
Now she goes in every Monday through Friday, at 9:20am, for 30 days. Two down, 28 to go! She'll be done on May 15th.Comment

Today was Tina's LAST DAY of radiation! A few follow-up appointments, some hormone pills, and we're back to a "normal" life; if there is such a thing after cancer!Comment
