Slightly calmer, not much, but slightly. Talked to my dad, who talked to the surgeon more, because pretty much I heard lymph nodes involved from cancer somewhere else in the body and flashed on my interent googling and FREAKED THE FUCK OUT, so y'know...not exactly in asking intelligent questions mode. Surgeon is thinking breast cancer is the most likely option, so an MRI is tops on the list of Things To Do, since if it's there it's hiding on the mammogram. Which could mean that it's tiny (but an overacheiver, jesus fuck, to the lymph nodes already? you couldn't be a slacker tumor you miserable fuck?!?). Unknown at this point. Second on the list is ovarian cancer, so pelvic is in order as well. Basically this could be on the same level of suck and worry as the Hodgkin's or it could be really bad news. I get to go back to creepy unknown land again until there are more tests, with the only thing for sure is hey, CANCER.
Sorry for spamming you guys like this, I'm sort of in panic mode right now :(
More update edit: Monday is when they will start scheduling all the tests, since my cancer had the bad manners to reveal itself late on a Friday. I'm trying to think of this as good news, if they thought it was going to off me right away, they wouldn't wait until after the weekend. I am to have an MRI, a PET scan, the pelvic exam, and a consultation with an oncologist.
