Dang, Hate THIS ~ Cancer check up tomorrow!
I am NOT looking forward to tomorrow as the wife has to take me back to the Durham VA Hospital for my next cancer check up. IN November and December of the year BEFORE last I had to spend six weeks there for radiation treatments for prostate cancer. My first blood results AFTER were pretty good; then my six month check was still good ~ then my last check up my PSA levels were HIGH. Concerned I call the Urologist and he said: "Sometimes level will rise, however IF the next checkup shows this high or higher then MORE treatments will be necessary!" My year was up this PAST December but did NOT want to go during the holidays,so I have been really stalling. They sent me letters and went ahead and made this appointment for TOMORROW. They told ME, that I have to make this ONE~ NOW, I'll go up there, talk to the Urologist, get blood work done; he'll ask me how this past year was ~ He!!, I have no idea, you don't feel anything really, just get sick every few weeks from the radiation.... he won't be able to tell me more until the blood work is checked.... SO, I'll just come back home NOT knowing anything... the waiting will be the worse part!!!
Please wish me LUCK!!!
(I'd much rather stay here and mess with the MAGNUMS ~ LOL)

Thank YOU so much everyone. We'll be heading out in a bit for the TWO hour trip up... all appointments are for this afternoon.
Honestly, getting kind of used to all of this ~ seem to spend more time at the VA hospital than home ~ NOT really~ but have been to Three different hospitals over the years for seven heart surgeries, then found out about having cancer two years ago which can ONLY be done at the Durham VA... so keep on keeping on....
