Surgery Aborted mid-course because of Tumor

I'm hoping for a great outcome for you!

Praying that it isn't cancerous!

Oh my goodness. Keep us posted please. My thoughts are with you.

Thanks for the love all. We just heard back the initial report and it is showing that the mass was a rare but benign lymph node growth. Not lymphoma. It's a weird disease called Castleman's which often grows in just one solitary spot and no where else. Treatment is what they already did: removal. And this cures it.

We are SO relieved.

Now just have to resubmit to insurance for the vsg and I'll go in for round 2 In a couple weeks.

Recovery has been hard for 5 days. They didn't keep me in the hospital at all and I had a very hard time controlling pain.

After day 3, it all got LOTS better though. I'm still hurting now but not nearly as bad - totally bearable.

I am so sorry!!! Praying for good pathology results. My surgery was delayed a few months for uterine cancer. (Postponed a couple months before surgery - not during like you). They got it all and I'm back on track, just a little later. Praying that this is just a blip in time for you. Please keep us posted!!

ETA. Just read further and saw it was benign! Yay!!!
