The waiting is the hardest part

Take a test, wait.......take another test, wait.......yet another test, wait some more.......tap.......tap.......tap.......So it goes for me these days. All this in an effort to make sure that the next doc I see will be the one who can take care of this mass in my neck. Will it be oncology or thoracic surgery? Wait to find out a little longer..... One is obviously much better than the other but I think that they both really suck. I did not want to use up my vacation time as time off after surgery. Well, let me stop there, as I have not been to a surgeon yet I will not presume that I will HAVE to have surgery. But as my GI symptoms are progressing I have a hard time believing that the mass can stay and leave me any kind of quality of life. I have had the CT, MRI and today the PET. After the last results come back I will know better where I stand.
