Keeping you in my thoughts Dee! Glad to hear posting has provided you some relief. Medical scares can be easy. I hope you get some positive news soon!

Oh, I hear you! Last summer I had a suspicious mole removed and that was stressful!

I've had some pretty serious health issues in the past few years, and I'll tell you I am much more prepared emotionally and spiritually than I was when I found out that bad news when I was drinking, but ugh.

Waiting is the worst.

Stay off Doc Google!! I have been told that for years. I don't listen either.

Dee is my favorite poster. No offense to anyone else on here you know I appreciate you all! But I would not have been able to get to where I am at today without him and I haven't even had much direct interaction with him but I always read his posts. His posts are so insightful and helpful and you can tell they come from the heart. He truly cares. Thank you for everything Dee!

Anyway, Dee, if I were you I wouldn't worry about it too much. Easier said than done I know but remember it is out of your control. There isn't much you can do. Just hope for the best. I'll keep you in my prayers.

Stay strong and stay sober!

Oh D. From one D to another. I am sending so much love and strength.

Your honesty is beyond admirable- you've always been a huge beacon of light to me since I stumbled into SR. None of us are immune to fear.
Sometimes, it's better to be well informed so we can be our own best advocate with the medical community.
But yeah I've diagnosed myself with everything under the sun too then skipped all my specialist appointments.

Shining light on fear is one of the best doses of medicine we can give ourselves.

Thanks so much for sharing D. I will keep you extra in my thoughts but my friend, you have always been in my thoughts. What would Dee do? Say or think? Or would just know the answer anyways so it would pop in my head.


xo love Del

As you know well, because you were with me ALL the way, I know what it's like to be afraid, to worry that it's the worst...........throughout everything I went through, you were my rock. You always reminded me that I could cope with whatever happened and you always made sure I was OK through my tests. And I was.

And hey, I still have the bone tumor and I still have my finger.....miracles....

It's OK to be afraid....human.....but it's going to be OK. It really is.
With the amount of love and goodwill for you out there....in here....the universe knows not to mess with our D.

Love you.

Thanks so much for all the support guys
After all my worrying....all clear on both counts

Not an A grade tho...

she doesn't much like the look of my lower legs - I have some really stubborn dermatitis there but she said thats nothing too sinister - par for the course for someone with my disability and limited mobility but she took a biopsy anyway.

I've always had trouble believing that with all the crazy things I did to my body, I'm doing ok healthwise.

Maybe now I can put that behind me and enjoy life again.

Thanks again - I'm really glad I let it all out

If jojo was here there would be dancing bananas.....I am very happy to hear your news.

Dermatitis can be so nasty (bad bad eczema myself); it's good to make sure, and maybe the doc will be able to prescribe something better to clear it up.

Much love.
