I really had no symptoms. My internist ordered an MRI because I have a history of IBS, diverticulitis, etc.

I feel absolutely fine beyond the stress. No symptoms. I lost my Mom a week ago who was a cancer survivor to age 93. I’m a fighter.

I appreciate this. I have no family locally so I am basically alone physically but have good emotional support.

Many of our members think of Mayo Connect as part of their family, @nbreeze, so please feel free to share your concerns and your questions with this online community. We are here for you, and we will encourage and support you along this journey. If you are looking for a second opinion at a Mayo facility (there is one in Florida), here is a link to appointment information, http://mayocl.in/1mtmR63.

I am glad to hear that you are feeling well and that as you say, "I'm a fighter." A fighting spirit can help with any cancer diagnosis. I would encourage you to read the recently published Spotlight of one of our members, @stageivsurvivor https://connect.mayoclinic.org/blog/about-connect/newsfeed-post/clinical-researcher-turns-patient-advocate-meet-stageivsurvivor/.

When is your next appointment or consultation?
