cowpuc Posted July 3, 2015 Share #1 Posted July 3, 2015 After what seems like FOREVER, we may be onto something significant concerning my health.. I had a recent study (last Monday) of my urinary functions (due to finding blood in my urine) and the Urologist called today and announced they found Cancer. It was a very very short phone conversation, basically telling us that my upcoming 15 meeting with him would be cancelled and moved to an hour appointment to discuss options. I have a daughter who is Pathologist and is deeply involved in fighting cancers. Of course we immediately contacted her to get a heads up on stuff. She asked that I contact the hospital here and get her in the loop.. I cant go into to much detail here but I will say, I was shocked at how open to sharing of information the hospital where I had the surgery done was = extremely co-operative. One of the last things Cappy (biker name for my daughter) asked me about was "how ya doing emotionally Poppers" to which I replied, its a double edged sword sweetheart - I am sure no one wants cancer but at least someone found something that may be causing these ongoing symptom's.. I have an Endocronogist (sp:confused24:) appointment coming up very soon who, I am sure, will be about this recent finding.. My family doctor continues to say that I am very very special because of all the surprise complications that I keep popping up with,, I keep telling her to tell me something new... And I thought that 22 hour straight thru ride from Michigan to Florida a few years ago was a long one:backinmyday:,,,, biggest difference,, THAT was a lot more fun!!! I know this is all getting old but I/we appreciate all thoughts and prayers as we continue CTmedicalFW!!!! Thanks gang!! Puc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sailor Posted July 3, 2015 Share #9 Posted July 3, 2015 Cancer is always scary. I have had it twice now. A friend of mine has gone through bladder cancer last year and he is doing fine now. Wishing you a speedy and full recovery. Keep on bikin'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venturous Randy Posted July 3, 2015 Share #10 Posted July 3, 2015 Well Puc, you sure do keep us entertained and thinking, most of the time really good and occasionally, well..... There is no doubt that you and your family have been in all of our thoughts and prayers and this will continue. I can understand this being a double edge sword, but now things can be done to hopefully get this turned around and get you back on the fun roads of life. It is amazing what has been done in the field of cancer and with early detection and treatment, it can be beat. It also helps to be a tuff old coot and you for sure are that.
