Need prayers and good thoughts for me. On Thursday I will have surgery on my right upper lung.
Pet scan showed a suspicious nodule. The nodule has been there for years, and I have followed up with CT scan yearly. Surgeon said it is slow growing. The thoracic surgeon will remove and biopsy the nodule. I will be in hospital for a few days. Then to top it off, I had basal carcinoma removed from my forehead. Doc did Mohs surgery and it is looking good. I also had MRI of back. Bulging disc and had severe sciatica for several months following an epidural injection. Went to Neurosurgeon and he wants to do surgery. That is on hold and not sure if I want rods and screws in my back. My sciatica is much better, and the disc problem is not bothering me at this time. I'm a mess huh? Good news on my macular degeneration, I get shots in my eyes every 12 weeks and the shots have helped keep the disease at bay. I know Cuties will help and support me through these issues. Sending love and flowers to all, Suzanna

158693Suzanna you will surely be in my thoughts and prayers. After I get thru my cancer after effects and get my husband's tests taken care of [this is coming up in a couple wks] I will ask my Dr. to ck. a nodule I've had in my throat. He recently [2 wks ago--had to go to ER for severe pain/spasms. It was a herniated disc causing spasms. He won't think about going to see if surgery will help his back. He also has bad crunching bones in his neck. But, you are going thru it badly with all going on with you so yes, prayers prayers and more prayers. It doesn't hurt to pray continually--it is in the Word of God.

11885Hi Suzanna, I wish you good luck for the operation and a good recovery. Don't have an operation on your disc, you need to build up your muscles, the screws will cause new problems. Good luck for Thursday, hugs Maria
20213Thanks for the update on all your health issues. The neurosurgeon told my husband his back is in really bad shape but if it’s not hurting right now, he suggest not having surgery. My husband had said that too before we even saw the dr for the report. Twenty years ago he had 2 ruptured disc and one completely disintegrated. They wanted to put rods & screws then but hubby refused. He said he saw too many have to have one surgery after another. So he suffered through and the bones fused naturally. He has a stiff back and a lot of arthritis. The arthritis is what gave him pain a year ago bc it’s wrapping around the nerves. However he’s been doing good with it for about 6 months again.
Sometimes we all feel like a mess, like we are falling apart. Don’t give up! There is a better day coming.
