It will be Wednesday morning so I'm hoping I'll hear something by a week from today. I kind of doubt it will be anything too definite though, since if he thinks it's cancr I'd imagine the next step is a biopsy. Yuck.
Fortunately, I am on a search committee for a faculty position at work and we're interviewing 5 candidates next week, along with all the other teaching, grading and committee meetings I have going on. This person we're hiring will be someone I work closely with for (hopefully) years and years, so I really want to give my full attention to the interview process and it will distract me some from thinking about the worst case here (and keep me hopeful about the future).
