Hi Everyone, I haven't been able to talk since my surgery 6/13/07 in Philly, so pretty down about that. I'm getting Ultra Voice as soon as my insurance preauthorizes it, which should be next week.
I think I may be the first one here to get Photodynamic Therapy.
I guess things didn't go too well in Philly. I know it was a nightmare and he didn't get clear margins.
So the plan is to clear the dysplasia and superficial carcinoma insitu with PDT. Getting injection Monday 9AM, back on Wednesday for 1st PDT, then Friday last PDT to clean up dead cells and I would think catch anything they missed. They've been doing it at UPMC in Pitts. Pa. since 1996. They gave me plenty of material to read, but everyone is different. Best I can figure, it is 38% successful, sounds good too me. I'm a nervous wreck and can only hope that I'm doing the right thing.
I will let you all know how it goes.

Luck and Best Wishes to all
