The PA I saw was ineffective and said you need to come back and see your doctor. My doc will be gone 3 weeks. It was stupid for me to even have gone in. She sorta just left the room. I went to the recep and said, whilst in tears, I am not paying for that. She agreed dn actually answered some of my questions! I knew I needed a blood test and possibly a bone scan. This broad said I am really sorry I was not given enough time to read your file. crimany so why did they make an app. So besides fencing my home, now I want to put in a moat and put alligators in it. When I told my A I was going in for this he did not even get it. later he says, well i am glad you are feeling good. what??? Love,debilyn who wants the world to go away. I will just clean house and cuddle the besats today

Oh, deb, really feeling for you. If there is any other doctor you can see who can answer questions, maybe it would be best not to wait for your own doctor to get back. Think of it as taking care of you I know it would feel better just to go home and shut out the lousy old world, but sometimes waiting is not the best strategy.

Deb,

There's nothing I can say to help I am sure.   But I want you to know that I am praying for you.  Lin has a good point.  Is there another specialist you can see in a different office?  I know when I don't feel well, the last thing I can handle is other's stupidity or shenanigans.

Keep the faith,

Lots of prayers for you that this is just a false alarm. Try and relax and keep positive thoughts. (Okay, I know that is almost impossible but try).

(((((((((((debilyn))))))))))))) I had a time when I was younger, when I had a really bad seizure......I was scared to death, of what was going on. After hours and hours of tests, they still couldnt figure out what was wrong. I definately know what you are going through, and I will keep you in my prayers. We all feel like we just want to stay at home, lock the doors, and hide......I have had many a days like that. Just remember that HP is with you, and we are all here for you as well. Buzzfree

More and more prayers for you.  I can totaly relate to you!!! Big Time.  Don't forget that Miracles happen every day and I pray for one for you as you had done for me not all that long ago.  Everyone on this board really did get me through the days of dark fear.  I know it is hard to not let the fear take over but try to think positive and if not I will think positive for you!!

Love you lots my sweat dear friend. xoxoxoxox

Hi, I have an app. with a woman doc up there thursday. Thank you so much you guys. It helps so much to read your thoughts. I am ok I felt worse about the way she treated me than being checked for C. All I needed was a blood test. I guess I find it so irritating when the "professional" does not know as much as I do. I took med classes for 5 years. Plus I researched like crazy for my mom. I am hoping this is not C. But one thing that got me was my moms fingernails got very hard when the cancer was in her bones. My nails are so hard. What is funny is they are beautiful!! lol Don't believe in any intervention so I want to know, if I do have it going, I want to be prepared I have a lot of animals here. Another thing is I will not tell my kids.NO way. They have lost so much already. I won't allow them to hurt any longer than possible. I don't believe I have it. But it sure freaks ya out when ya don't know... will tell ya what happens Thursday. Love to you all, debilyn who feels comfy in hp's hands

Glad you are sounding better!  Praying for you alot. 

Love JJ

((((HUGS)))) Debilyn!! Praying for you lots and lots!! We all love you, so feel all our hugs along with the critter cuddles. Love you lots, TLC

Aww Debilyn,

Thanks for updating us! I am saying prayers for you :)  You sound like your own worst enemy,,,,knowing too much. The hard nails could be nothing. Do what you need to for your serenity. I have had more than one cancer issue. I get nervous talking about it too. For me I can help with the breast cancer stuff but the other stuff I can't even talk about. One day at a time. Major prayers being sent your way. (((((Hugs))))) cdb
