Not So fast......

After coming to a decision, I was thrown a curve-ball late last night.....

It seems that my latest lab work from the Clinic showed my Hcg levels higher than they were when I left CA????? When last checked, they were a 5 which is still elevated. Before surgery, they were 55, then 17 shortly after surgery, then down to a 5 - trending towards 0 and looking good....Somehow, yesterday they were at 14....I believe this means that there is more cancer in my body somewhere that is not showing up on any of the CT Scans....

Soooooooo, back to the Clinic for more CT Scans and blood tests tomorrow. If my Hcg is not down to below 5, they will cancel surgery.....

It might be chemo after all....

Anyways.....I'l just have to play golf today to kep my mind off of all this BS.....
