MD Anderson and Future Plan

Howdy,

I wanted to send out a quick update, since the appointment on Thursday to not go as expected. I knew on Wednesday that this appointment would wind up being canceled, I called them that day and told them what was going on and they told me to come anyways.

However, on Thursday morning I called again and told them that my bleeding has gotten heavier and that there was going to be no way for them to have a clear field of vision. The nurse I spoke to explained to me that until the doctor said that I couldn't come but I still need to go. A few hours after that phone call, the same nurse told me that my appointment had been canceled. She also told me that they had called my local OB/GYN and that I needed to go there to have some blood work done and to speak to my doctor. I thought this was odd but I am used to have to have blood work done because of my anemia.

So at 4:30 on Thursday evening I went into my local doctor, and I surprised to how the appointment went. They drew my blood, and did an exam and couldn't see anything because the bleeding was so bad. I then met with the doctor in his office and we talks about what was going on.

 Explained that he wasn't sure that he could get the bleeding under control to a point where it would make my life easier. I could tell that he's becoming quite frustrated with my case and that he doesn't know why none of the medicine is working.

As a result of this, he offered to tell M.D. Anderson that I would no longer be going there and that if I thought it out and prayed about it that he would do a complete hysterectomy.

In this shocked me. Two weeks previous to this appointment he told me no way no how. But on Thursday it seemed like this was the only hope he had in trying to make my life more "normal."

So it looks like I have another huge decision to make, and I will not be making it lightly. A lot of praying pondering and speaking to others will happen before I make a decision. If I get this surgery, it would eliminate the need for me to go to M.D. Anderson because the problem would no longer exist.

This road that I am traveling, Doesn't seem to be getting any easier or lighter to bear. However I know that the Lord is with me and he will lead me in my decisions.

Again thank you all for your love concern and prayers, You have no idea how much it truly means to me. If any of you have questions please feel free to ask them and just like before if I do not answer right away I will eventually I promise.
