However, I am sure that if it were thrush, he would have been treating it so it wouldn't mess up surgery if I need it.
I just love this waiting stuf, all the anticipation and alternate plans!! I have a branch coming up Monday where I will go to surgery or I will have my prostate fixed, depending on the biopsy results! Both of those are GOOD plans when one considers some of the alternatives...
