Waiting for Pathology
I am still waiting for some conclusive results to the supposedly secondary tumor that was respected from my cerebellum (brain) last week.
Prior to surgery, my oncologist said I had progressed from Stage II to Stage IV breast cancer.
After surgery, my Neurosurgeon said that the tissue in question looked abnormal, but pathology results say it is normal and not breast tissue. They say what it is not, but not what it actually is. I wonder if the sample actually made it intact to pathology?
We are all confused and until I see my oncologist in a couple of weeks, I will not know if I am still Stage IV or officially back to Stage II, and whether the planned radiation/ chemo and targeted therapy will eventuate.
Waiting is hard, but cannot be changed. So I go with the flow and focus on my rehab from neurosurgery. Bring on the Wii balance board and Xbox Knect. Fun times with the kids help me to recover balance and hand/eye coordination.
