Thank you for everyone's suppport. I've been out a week, still quite sore, drains going as they should. Path. report (thankfully) came back earlier this time! After the removal of 16 total nodes (both superficial and deep, both sides) -- all NEG!! At the surgical site (where initially they didn't get the margins they had hoped for) after partial radical vulvectomy, no evidence of residual displasia, squamous cell carcinoma in situ or invasive. Such a tough decision, and second surgeries are always disappointing, I am so grateful! The surgeons just went for it.

I am so happy to learn the great news regarding second surgery. You certainly have had a long road, however, you finally have a clear report! You had 16 nodes removed?! Wow! Like I mentioned to you before, those incisions will require good attention. They will be slow to heal because they heal from inside out. I didn’t think mine would ever heal!!
Once again, happy for your clear report. Sorry for your pain. Will pray for your quickness recovery!
