Welcome to the group! Just a few short weeks ago, I was in your shoes. All I did was go to a routine dentist appt and next thing I know, my world was turned upside down. Everyone on this site is so nice, understanding and filled with compassion and information!
I had surgery about 10 days ago and although it is of course, uncomfortable it is certainly doable...good luck to you Jane. Hang in there, they found it, that's the good thing.
I will pray for you. I know how you are feeling. Love, Denise
