Also Jess, a carcinoid tumor that is typical, is usually slow growing, if it is going to grow at all. My surgeon told me I was "lucky" it was this type of cancer. The fact that it is rare, many surgeons decide on different treatments. Keep telling yourself you are finally going to get the rest of the tumor out, and then ask all your questions of your doctor. You may be worrying about things that will turn out to be fine. Your waiting is over Jess. You are exactly where you need to be in the moment. 💕
