My appointment with the oncologist surgical GYN is set for November 24. So a two week wait. While that is nothing short of a miracle to get into an oncologist in only two weeks, it’s still going to be a very painful two weeks. Please pray hard for me. I know I’m a whiny-butt, and I’ve long worn out my welcome on here for support and prayers:blush:, but please PLEASE pray for me. Thank you! :hug1:

No you have not worn out the welcome here. Not to me anyway.

Praying for you. May this hard road you are on end soon.

You have not worn out your welcome at all, Convert! I will pray for you. I was happy for you that you got an appt so quickly, relatively speaking.

I don’t comment often on your threads, but do keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

Thank you! 🙂 yes it’s hard to pray right now as my faith and hope have weakened considerably. But I do try to remember my daily offering if I don’t get much else prayed. 👍

No there’s nothing else unfortunately save even stronger narcotics, but they won’t I barely got these from them.

Thank you for the advice! Trust me I’m quite the stubborn pesky type and make sure they are doing all they can! :o

It’s called perspective and trust.
When we pray, we don’t just petition for something and then sit around and wait. We actively seek to be in communion with the Holy Spirit. We pray for peace, trust that it will be granted, and then lay our heads down.
you have many friends actively and fervently praying for you.
You have Doctors examining what is best for you.
You have a husband who loves you.
You are a member of the Body of Christ.
You have a good sense of humor.
You are not hungry or homeless.
That’s your perspective. Our trust is in Him who love us so much He gave His very life in an excruciatingly painful way. With total love. You are sharing in the Passion in a unique way. You are united to Christ in his suffering, and He in you. He knows what you go through.
Try to get some rest. Ask your guardian angel to pray for you while you sleep.
Ask Our Lady to keep you under her mantle as her special child.

This is excellent advice, and I’m taking it for a difficult personal situation I’m facing. Thanks Clare.

Convert, as always, you’re in my heart and prayers.

To Convert & Alphwoman:

Read 1Kings 19:4-9

Elijah was wanting to just give up.
The angel said to him, get up, you need to eat and drink.
Elijah was not impressed.
The angel kept waking him…he had unfinished work.
Get up, take care of yourself, you have things to do.
Eat. Drink.
The angel said “Otherwise the journey will be too great for you!”
Partake of the Body and Blood of Christ. Be strong. Be equipped. Be ready.
Eat. Drink.
Love you both!
 
Convert in 99,

This is a very positive step! 👍

Don’t be so down - this is certainly a step in the right direction. A good doctor will do exactly what this doctor has done, which is identify that the issue is serious and beyond their capacities and refer you to the specialists who will provide you with the best treatment.

I am very confident that you are much closer to successful treatment of your issues than you were before. God bless.

You are sweet! I hope so. (I have to rely on other’s hope right now, as mine’s a bit shaky. :o )
Thanks :flowers:
 
It’s been a loooooooong day. But wonderful. 🙂

So this weekend I looked up the reviews for the oncologist, and he consistently got very bad reviews (one and two stars out of five) out of a couple hundred of them! :eek:

I said no way Jose is that guy going to do a major surgery on me! :eek:

So I was back where I started from. Square one. And totally down. Having panic attacks all weekend. It was awful! 😦

Today first thing I started making calls. I didn’t know where to turn so I I started back with the NAPRO doctor (his staff may stink but at least he’s a good doctor) and his bowel surgeon he recommends. I got in immediately to all three! :eek: As well as the testing clinic! I have two of my three tests scheduled for Friday and at my appointment Thursday we will schedule the third. It’s a colonoscopy so I will have to be sedated.

It’s like God just opened wide all these doors miraculously that I’ve been struggling to open for months! It was just :eek:!!!

NAPRO doctor tomorrow to get more RX pain meds to last me through the next two months. Also, Tomorrow we discuss hysterectomies. I’m very scared he won’t do it. He’s not against it just wanted to wait through one more surgery and see. Cause he’s so pro child, pro life and all. Plus the age (33) and having to closely monitor synthetic hormone balance in me. That’s the only drawback to this. But if I get the uterus and ovaries out there is an 85% chance the Endo will be gone for good! :extrahappy: Now there is that 15% chance it will return, but the hope is so great. There is a 50-60% chance it will return without a hysterectomy, and it has, twice! Plus if I have to get open abdomen surgery anyways, and have to be hospitalized and all, I might as well get both hard surgeries done at once. Please pray hard that he will agree to letting me get the hysterectomy and oophorectomy. It will significantly lower my chances of having to get another surgery anytime soon, possibly forever! Thanks! :hug1:
