report of thyroid biospy,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

well good news,,,while there maybe something going on with the thyroid,,,,it is not cancer according to the biospy report,,,and that is good news,,,,,,,,,we are supposed to repeat the ultra sound in six months,,,,in the meantime,,,I am still having chest pain,,,and it is not the cancer,,,,,(lymph nodes),,,,nor acid reflux,,,I thought maybe it was because of upping the thyroid medicine,,,,,,so I went off of it for 3 weeks,,,,didnt phase it,,,so I went back on it,,,,,saw my heart Dr,,,,,, Dr Pribble on Wed,,,,,,we are going to do some tests on Monday,,,,,,,I asked him just what it could be,,,,, anxeity,,,hypertension????   He said it sounded like spasms of the arterys while I was at rest,,,(makes sense),,,but he said it was hard to detect,,,,,,in the mean time he gave me some nitro glycersin spray to use,,,,,,,,so the story of my life,,,more tests,,,,and wait for results,,,,

Day of biopsy,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Monday,,,April 1

Well today was the day for the biopsy of the thyroid,,,a long grueling day for sure,,,,Jenni and Hannah took me to Greenview hospital and took care of me,,,,,,,,,,,we had to be there at 8:30 for surgery at 10:00  but at 10:30 the Dr thought things would go better if I received some platelets since my platelets were 49,,,to be on the safe side,,,,so they had to be ordered and then refined and then it took 15 minutes to receive them and then surgery was 45 minutes and recovery was for 30 minutes,,,,There was no heavy bleeding........Thank God,,,,,,and no stitches just a band aid....hey that is a good thing.  Pain was a minimal but I could feel deep pressure,,,,he took 4 biopsy's of nodules and I'm hoping we will hear something before the end of the week and then maybe we will know what we are dealing with.  Can't do anything for the next 48 hours,,,,,,think I will chill out and watch some movies,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,and wait,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Thanks to Jonathan and Tiffany for supper tonight,,,,I was starving,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Well I want to start off by saying,,,,MASON is here,,,,,one healthy little boy,,,,,and one proud Mamma,,,love my grandchildren sooo much,,,,I have started watching him two days a week and have sooo thoroughly enjoyed him,,,,,he makes my day,,,,,

Not sure,,,,,,,,,,of what is going on,,,,,,haven't been sick all winter,,,,I have stayed in quite a bit,,,afraid of catching the flu,,,,,,,that would not be good......but something is going on,,,not sure exactly what,,,,,,I have been having chest pain,,,,doesn't feel like a weight on my chest,,,been going on for 10 weeks...and of course the side of my right neck and ear are still achy,,,,had a cat scan done in February,,,it showed no change in the lymph nodes,,,,but showed thyroid nodules,,,,which I know I had always had a goiter,,,and am taking thyroid medicine so it wouldn't grow,,,,Dr suggested an ultrasound on the neck to check the nodules out,,,,now there are several nodules, which is normal of a goiter,,,,,,,,now there are nodules on the right,,,hmmmmmm,,,same side the achyness is on plus the ear that hurts,,,and same side the chest pain is,,,also same side where they biopsied the lymph nodes under the arm and found Non Hodgkin's Lymphoma,,,,wonder if there is a connection here,,,,,,,,,,So now I am scheduled for a biopsy of the thyroid,,,,no surgery as of this time,,,just a ultrasound guided core biopsy,,,,just a one inch incision ,,,,even though the platelets were 47 as of the last blood work, they seem to think it is adequate for the biopsy,,,hmmmmm,,,,which should tell us what we are dealing with,,,could be another goiter,,,,,thyroid lymphoma,,,,,cancer of the thyroid,,(can you imagine having 3 different cancers????? Really now????) (enough is enough----don't even go there). I was taking thyroid medicine so the goiter wouldn't grow,,,,,,,,but something is going on with the thyroid because the Dr increased the medicine in November and again in February,,,,,so wonder what is going on,,,,,,,questions, questions, questions,,,,,,got to remember to get the Dr to prescribe an anti-biotic,,,to protect my knee,,,I mean if I have to take one for teeth cleaning,,,,surely I will need one for the incision, to protect the knee,,,and probably go off the celebrex too,,,,,,(mental note to call Dr and ask about this), The test was scheduled for this Monday 3/25,,,but gonna call and See if we can change to 4/01 while the kids are off on spring break,,,,,they said to bring a driver,,,,hmmmmmmm ,,,,,, Probably will be about 3 weeks before I know

anything....will let you know,,,,,,,(mental note:  think positive thoughts)
