I am posting this friends only, and I am posting it because I don't want to tell over and over again.

Today Jim and I both had appointments today at the doctors. He was in the room next to mine and we were playing on the phones to each other (our cells) and peeking out the door at each other. It was really comical.

The doctor saw him first.

Then it was my turn. I had went last year and the doctor called to say he wanted to discuss something in my blood test. I blew it off.

Today, my blood pressure was 180/100....... then he walked in and first thing he says to me is..... "so you are having difficulty with your colon cancer"?

I had told them about the blood in my stool so maybe that's where he got the colon thing.

He went on to tell me last year what he saw was a very high CA125 ? Cancer screen.

He has ordered me to go to E.R. and tell them I have blood in my stool and he wrote out an order for a colostomy.

He wants me there.... like now.

I am so afraid and trying to stay calm ...... Needless to say, I'm not going today. I just need to digest and I don't know what.

I don't want sympathy I just want my friends to wish good thoughts, pray... what ever you believe in, please send it my way !

I love ya'll and I'll keep you posted.

My mood: pretty courageous

newdaydogEP	Posted on 06:33PM on Feb 24th, 2009 Marji, I am sorry to read of this! Please do not delay any longer. I have lost two of my oldest friends to colorectal cancer in the last 18 months and I have no desire to see another good person fall. In my case I have an appt. scheduled for Monday for a biopsy of my prostate (my PSA has quadrupled in 6 months). I have hopes that it’s early days and that all will be well but “If wishes were fishes we’d all have dinner” so on to the biopsy. Good luck with your visit to the doc, a colonoscopy is no big deal. All praises to “twilight sleep” (been there done that – don’t need the tee shirt) you won’t feel a thing.
Marji	Posted on 06:54PM on Feb 24th, 2009 Oh ! I am sorry for your loses and will be sending you positive vibes come Monday... "If wishes were fishes we'd all have dinner" I like that ! I've had one before, it's not the fear so much holding me back as it is.... I just need time, a few days is all. I'm going Monday......thank you so much for your well wishes !
