Karmic Focus, Please. Going to get biopsy results right now.
I've had a lot of biopsies lately. So far all have been negative and I haven't been very worried. Today I'll get the results from my throat and esophagus. These are the results I have been worried about as I'm at high risk for cancer of the esophagus and it's a mess in there.

Please wish me luck. I'll be back later on today or early this evening to let you know the results. (If it's bad news, I'm going to make sure I talk to my mom first and then post. But with any luck--and I do have an enormous amount of luck--I'll be back to throw a huge party in the Lounge because I'm cancer free.)

:loveya:

9. A Blessing upon your Upper Gastro-Intestinal Tract!
It's Hanukkah, Christmas, Kwanzaa and Solstice time. That ought to give it a little extra oomph.

Good luck!

13. Biopsy = Negative! Woo-Hoo!
The GREAT news is that my biopsy was negative. Because of all the damage done to my esophagus over the years, I'm at high risk for cancer and was worried about this test. I'm very. Very relieved.

To reduce my risk of developing cancer in the future, my doctor recommends a surgery to repair the valve between my stomach and esophagus, and to put the piece of my stomach that's popping through back where it belongs. First, the ulcer has to heal. Also, he feels he doesn't have all the pieces of the puzzle. He found all kinds of abnormalities that I can't pronounce or spell and wants to do some more tests and try to put it all together. I'm on medication now and will probably have my surgery within the next 6 months.

So overall, this is really great news. We're going to get to the bottom of all my digestive ailments and take care of them. If I had continued to just let it go, I may have ended up in very bad shape.

Thanks for your positive thoughts, karmic focus, vibes, energy and prayers, and thanks for listening while I vent my fears and frustrations about all the stuff going on with me.
