        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.

              Have the doctors said it is melanoma?  I have nodules in my lungs, and this year they are new, between 2-7 mm in size.  They are too small to be biopised.  My oncologist is not thinking mine are not from the melanoma.

                          I had a mole removed from my right calf in 6/07 along with one lymph node from my right groin.  That lymph node tested postive of cancer. In  september of that  year, I had a LND of my right pelvic area.  I did get a second opinion, of who agreed with my onc of what to do.  I did have a huge source of prayer for me.  I still do.  I think I will never understand why?,  or see how this is to prosper me and not to harm me (Jeremiah 29:11).  I right in my diary and post on my blog and that does help.  I have 3 friends who are also cancer survivors, which does help in when I need to talk.  Everybody on here understands what you are going there.
