Thank you and YES I will. Did her from the Doctors Nurse yesterday and she said I read your report and it looks like GOOD NEWS. The cancer did not spread , but will still have to check the Lymph Nodes 1 on each side and if there is no cancer you will only have to come back for periodically check, and if they show then you would have to see a Radiologist, and I told her I can handle that! Thanks for asking and caring! I will post after my surgery next Friday on the 16 th when I get Home. ❤️🙏

@cheriels This is very good news. Yes, the surgeon will remove one lymph node on each side of the uterus and send those lymph nodes to pathology. That's how they check to see if there is any involvement in the lymph nodes. I had the same procedure. The nurse explained everything so well to you. The 16th is coming up and you will be in very good hands at Mayo Clinic.
