Suppose to be in surgery at this very mini here but yesterday they called and rescheduled it for 2 weeks from today. 2 more weeks of crying and worrying. I have an appt Thurs with my surgeon for reassurance and to just talk. Now waiting on my 2nd 24 HR urine test to come back....I think that's the only test that is holding surgery up. Do you know how important it is to have a dopamine plasma test before surgury??....that's the only part of the labs they tossed out because lab sent it in improperly and endocrinologist never asked for repeat draw.

I never heard of that test I have to google that , what I can tell you is stressing out about it is only going to make you go crazy , and can lead to other medical problems, I’m glad your going to speak to your surgeon so he can give you some peace of mind 🙏🏽 hang in there , I get another cat scan November 7 and I pray the tumors on my ovaries and liver haven’t grown anymore since I’ve been getting the sandostatin shots , my husband and children have been a good support system for me , but this support group gives me the knowledge I need to combat this condition I have my tears but I don’t allow them to consume me I have to be strong ..

@wagneriandreamer, just checking in on you. I hope you got reassurance and further clarification at your consult with the surgeon today. Did you discuss the results of your tests? How are you feeling?
