Thank you all for your kind words. It's only been a few days since the biopsy was ordered so I'm in panic mode, I'll take care of the details so Mike can concentrate on being well. And yes, the Doc knows about the coumadin and clots, all his Drs. stay in close touch. Depending on the outcome I'll need a center in or near Chicago, so I'll sure ask for some ideas if we get to that. I'm so glad i found this site.
