    I am having a broncoscopy with a needle biopsy tomorrow to see  and probably also lymph nodes removed from around my windpipe to see if my cancer is back, or to defintely be diagosed with sarcoid.

      The needle biopsy came back negative.  the doctor couldn't get to the nodule in my lung, so he quit that part. the surgeon took out a few lymph nodes from around my windpipe and they came back negative, so he went in and took more, a larger sample.  I should get the results on that Friday or Monday.  I see my onc Monday morning.  I am very sore.  They did the cut just above my breast bone, and I am sore from there down to my butt muscles.  It hurts to cough.  I am taking tomorrow off as well from work.

        On the 25th of this month, I will be 5 1/2 years NED. I am praying that i still am.
