Another hiccup...

-
I have been seeing some form of a female doctor for the past 2 weeks to find out what the heck is going on (continuous bleeding, large clots, debilitating pain/cramps).  Yesterday, the nurse practioner called and told me that I have to see an oconologist. Yup, a cancer doctor.  *sigh* Apparently, while taking samples, the cells looked suspicious.  Seriously?! 

Now I have an appointment with this doctor on Monday (9am) to find out what is going on, what to do and when.  I do regret going to find out what was going on.  Why can't I just live in peace with no doctor wanting to poke, prod or slice me open?  I am just disgusted and angry.

Any word on what is going on? I had those issues. They did an ultrasound (out and inside, wasn't expecting that) and found I have uterine fibroids (that many women have) and cause those same issues. Easier to swallow than cancer. Just thinking about you.

Sorry it took me long to respond. Well, I have pre-cancerous cells and will be undergoing a hysterectomy on June 25th (I just blogged it).

Thank you for thinking of me. I do appreciate it. I will be posting when I can, probably after I get home.

OK here's the poop on the Dermi today.  I saw Dr. Henderson and she is a resident at HF.  I went to see a dermi because of the previous post of my sores on my scalp.   She looked me over and was very concerned with the one I have on top of my scalp.  It's deep and she thought it could turn into a cancerous problem.  I did tell her that is where my previous dermi did the punch biopsy.  Dr. H brought in another dr for a second opinion and that doctor stated that if that wound wasn't closed up by stitches and I have lupus, the wound might not have closed up and healed properly.  So in essence, it made Dr. H feel better that it was the area of the punch biopsy.   So today, as I had a hunch, I was injected with cortisone.  That is something I never will forget but she was a lot better than my previous dermi.  She was gentle and gave me some breaks.  I had injections done to the side areas and my crater on top.  The cortisone ...

Ah the life of a lupie!  So much fun! A few days ago, I left eye started to hurt and I thought it was just typical crappy weather problem.  That started Wednesday.  Long story short... it puffed out and I had a fever of 101. Not a pretty picture at all.  It was a lot worse than this.  Just hated  how I looked and felt, especially with the holidays coming around and the noise. Anywho, went to the family doctor today and she gave me antibiotics (augmentin) and boy those are HUGE pills!  Plus she recommended a saline flush so why not.  So now I'm home and just wanted to update my blog since I haven't in some time.  I have been writing in my journal of my own personal thoughts but I like to keep my medical stuff on here so I can refer back. Ok, I'm going to lay down and sleep this pain off.
