Feeling a little more positive today, i am slowly getting used to the idea of a third op but i would love for my consultant to say i wont need one for a coulpe of years or even a year, i just want one year without pain! I mean carcinoid grow slowly right so where is the harm of putting the op off for a bit?

hi louise,
sorry to hear your having a ruff time with it all hun but you've come to the right place
there are so many wonderful caring ppl on here who totally understand how you feel and what you are going thro,like you said family and friends are supportive and everything but i found they dont really understand what you are going thro unless they have been thro it themselves.
this site has been my rock, i can let off steam scream and shout or just speak my mind without fear of upsetting a vunerable loved one.
i can totally appreciate your feelings about the ops hun altho mine are not as severe as yours, i only had the last one only 2 months ago and was told on thursday i need another one in 2 weeks to remove my auxillary nodes ......i dont want another op but think sod it if its going to help me get rid of the bloody cancer its got to be worth doing.
Thank you and you are right if it helps i just need to be strong and get it out of the way. I am trying to be positive but i cant stand all the waiting. Hey but we can stay positive together thank you again and good luck for your op xx
the waiting is definatly the hardest part .i have had 2 months of testing and waiting now, 2 operations a bone marrow biopsy cat scans so many blood tests i'm surprised i have any blood left in me lol and i still have not yet started any treatment ....
i had the excision auxillary node removal yesterday which wasnt very nice to say the least.i'm feeling rather sorry for myself tucked up in bed with my side stapled together :O( but once i get the results of that ( another 2 week wait grrrr ) i'll will know if its radio or chemo ......
when is your next op hun ???good luck with it xxxx
