@jessie1990 I hope you are getting all of my replies. One thing to remember about what is remaining of your original tumor, all of your reports from that came back benign. I think perhaps they just want to get the rest out because it was blocking your airway (?) And checking your lymph nodes, they can determine other things. I think they are making sure everything is clear, which will, in the end make some of your worries go away. It's all good ❣️
