Today's the day for my checkup

I have my cancer checkup today at 3:45pm. I'm a little bit nervous (ok, more than a little). My last checkup was clear, but the one previous to it wasn't as good. I would greatly appreciate any prayers sent on my behalf! I'll try to post results when I get home.

Thanks!
Steve

Hey Steve good luck buddy. Hopefully everything comes back negetive for you :sunny: so you can get back to the forums.

Good luck! I hope all goes well for you!
and we will be thinking about you! :please:

Best of luck! I'll been thinking about ya. I know what that feels like, my father has another CCU coming up.

Steve...you are in our prayers. Here is wishing for negative news.

Prayers, good wishes, good vibes, whatever you need Steve. Hoping it all goes well and you get a great result.

I hope that everything comes back ok for you.. please keep us posted.

My hubby went through that a few years ago. I remember how nerve-wracking those check ups could be. :hug: You're in my thoughts and prayers today, hon.

Aww Steve, good luck! I'll be thinking/praying for you all day! Hope everything turns out well.

Good luck buddy!

I wish you the best, and hope all your tests come up negative. I myself had surgery yesterday, so i know all about nervousness and doctors.

The important thing, whatever the results are, is that you don't lose hope. Stay positive and know that you have everyone here praying for you. You can beat this thing!

Well, the actual surgery went good, but this morning I woke up in the most pain I can honestly say that I have ever experienced. 2 percocets barely even phased it. :( Apparently this only lasts a couple days though ... *crosses fingers*, whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger I guess :)

Robin

Steve,

Best wishes, and positive vibes coming your way.

We are trying to find out if my Mom has cancer, she has her appointment this week too. I know how scary it is.

I really wish you the best of luck.

Kristy

Good luck! Sending good vibes your way!:sunny:

good luck steve! i talked to my grampa yesterday and he said he was gonna talk to his doctor today and see if he could trade in his cancer for something more socially acceptable... like chlamydia. who knows? maybe he's got a good doc who can make it work?

good luck man

Best wishes on your check up!! I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Good luck and stay strong! ^_^

Thank you all for your support!!!!! Just got home from work. Appt is at 3:45 central time. I'll definitely let you guys know the results. Startin' to get a little freaked out, but I'm in good hands with my dr. Melanie, if you're grampa gets that to work, let me know, would you? Along with the dr's name??? ;)

Steve

definitely! ;)

Best of luck with your test's I hope every thing come out clean and clear.

Steve,

My prayers are definately with you! My grandmother is going thru the same thing. She had breast cancer and had a double mast. and is now going for her check-ups. I hope everything goes great with you.

God Bless!

Best of luck with your check up!

Well, I want to thank everyone for their prayers! They definitely did some good, because my checkup came back clear! Second time in a row! :D

Got some pain to deal with for a while, but I guess its worth it to get the good news!

Thanks!!!

Aww steve! I'm so glad that they came back clear! And I'll add that I hope that they always stay clear! :carrot:

Excellent news! :grouphug:

Thanks, guys! You have no idea how much your support means to me!

Steve

Great news! I am glad that you're clear.

Woot Woot!:carrot: Wonderful news!

Steve,

Thats awesome news. Glad to here it. :)

As I mentioned last time in this thread, the support you guys gave me helped me tremendously! Again, I thank you all sooo much!!!

Tomorrow, 1/4/2008, at 10:00, I go in for another checkup. I wouldn't even bother you guys with this, except that I really do believe that prayer works. I've seen the results too many times in my life!

If you think about it, please include me in your prayers, and I'll let you know tomorrow how things turn out.

Thank you again for all your support!!!!

Steve

Steve we got you covered bro :gj:

Hi Steve,
It must be very hard for you to have your mortality called into question on a frequent basis and to have no control over the outcome.
My daughter has leukemia and is weighing quality of life over medicated life, with the end result being the same in both scenarios. It is very hard on her to deal with this on any level given that she has two young sons to think about.
Be brave and love life. Take care.

Thanks again everyone for the continued support.

Starmom - I won't lie and say that either way its good. But, God has a way of comforting me that cannot be equaled. Cancer has brought me into a closer relationship with God, and that has to be a good thing! As a result, I hope that my checkup comes back clear of course. But if it doesn't, I know that God is in control, and He will take care of me (and my family) no matter the outcome. My kids are grown, so I know that makes a difference, too. I'll be adding your daughter and your family to my prayers.

Steve

Just got back from my checkup. Came back clear! Thanks for all your prayers!

Steve

THAT is awesome!

But also, I have a great admiration for your positive attitude :gj:

Medicinal Marijuana is another alternative your daughter could take. You live in a MM state(Medicinal Marijuana). MM is most prescribed for cancer and those sort of things as it has been shown to help immensely.

If you are curious to read more:
www.Abovetheignorance.org
www.norml.org

She has a very rare opportunity that most people don't have because of where they live.

I hope she feels better and Steve, I'm glad your checkup came back clean.

Hi Jeff~
I am a staunch supporter for medical marijuana, but my daughter doesn't live in Oregon. Darn!!

Thats unfortunate, if things get worse maybe living at home and giving MM a try. I hope all is well.
