About Me

Here is a little bit about myself. I am 66 years old and retired. I moved back to New York after living in California for 35 years in 2008. I share an apartment with my sister, my cat Martini and seven of her cats: TJ, Daisy, Pookie, Leo, Maggie, Shannon and Minnie.
I love to read and my favorite types of books are: Romantic Historicals set in England (Mary Balogh), Mystery (Carol Higgins Clark and Mary Higgins Clark), Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum books. And of course I love to scrap and take photos. I love music from the 40's, 50's, & 60's, jazz and classical.

    Hi Dot,
    Ended up in the hospital on Friday morning due to a dangerously low (2,000) platelet count when normal is over 70,000. Came home yesterday afternoon. Good news, test results came back, no cancer. Will post on the board later.
    Thanks for your concern.

    The sample that is sent to the lab will take about a week for the results to come back. If the nodes are benign, everything is okay. If not, then we talk about the next step. Maybe chemo, maybe radiation. Let's keep out fingers crossed that the nodes are benign.

    Spoke to the doctor about the procedure that's set for next Thursday. He's really nice and has a great bedside manor. He'll do the procedure. He's done many of them and all without incident. He goes in and looks around for the suspicious lymphnodes and then takes a sample of them. He also sends a sample to the lab. I should know after I wake up whether the nodes are benign ...

    No news yet. I have a consult scheduled with the doctor who will do the endoscopy, which is scheduled for Thursday 5/9 at White Plains Hospital. Hopefully that will tell what is going on. They will put a tube down into my stomach and take samples of the lymphnodes that might be cancerous. Then they will biopsy them and we'll see what the news is then. Thanks for your kind thoughts.

    Oh, gosh, Carol - that procedure sounds terrible....I'm so sorry you had to go through that. I wonder why they can't just put one to sleep completely to do a bone marrow test? Hope it didn't leave you sore where they stuck that needle?
