Oh bummer, I’m really sorry you had to cancel your vacation. What a disappointment for you and your family after all the planning. I know you were vascilating on whether to go or not so I guess that decision was made for you. 😕
Ok, now it’s full speed ahead with finding out what the heck is going on with you so you can get on with your life. If you haven’t figured it out by now, I’m a ‘rip the bandaid off’ type gal and rather know what I’m dealing with than to fret about it. Not knowing just leaves you treading water with no direction to shore.
You have a couple of busy weeks ahead so I’ll be thinking about you and sending positive vibes for only good news! I’m here anytime you need a lifeline, moral support or you feel like venting. ☺️ Do you have any questions about the bone marrow biopsy?

Sending positive vibes..and big hugs.

Since I will mercifully be sedated, I’m less scared of the bx. How long does it take to get results?
After getting results from all these tests I’m considering a second opinion at Mayo or MD Anderson or Cancer Centers of America. Not the dx per se, but the treatment plan. Does the second opinion have anything additional or does it pretty much mirror the plan from my current hematologist. I just want to know my plan is the best option.
