More Biopsies

Patti and I went to the dermatologist for the three month check up and they found two more spots that they had questions on, so they removed them for a biopsy. One is on my back on the right side near the original surgery site. The other was on my face next to my left eye. Not big areas, just a couple of stitches. Now the wait is on to see if they are or are not melanoma. They looked at the three lumps in my right leg and do not feel that they should be removed at this time. I will do a thermography scan on the leg later in the month. This is a thermal image with no radiation used. Right now I am over the limit for radiation testing and therapy. With 1 pet scans, 7 cat scans, 3 MRI, 6 x-rays and 27 radiation treatments 17 months is over the limit as told by 3 doctors who treat me.

I guess tonight will be one of those nights because of where the stitches are in my back. I should be getting use to these nights by now. Pray for me and negative results on the biopsy's.
