the background...

This Blog is so that I can write down the events leading up to and about my cancer story. Along with everything that followed the surgery.

I am going back over a year ago and will write a little more each day in the process that I have gone through. Until we are in current day.

And might I add there maybe some details that are a bit graphic. 


It's been just over a year since all the major problems started.

Feb/March 2011 I went in for a routine exam like every woman should. My gynecologist found a polyp and said that it needed to be removed immediately so that we could find out if there were more problems. This was extremely painful it felt like I was left with a crater in me. When my doctor showed me what he removed it was a mass of cell the size of a golf ball. It being removed caused me to bleed. I left there in so much pain.
I was later called with the results of the biopsy and told that I had per-cancerous cells and that I needed to have a few more test done. He also wanted me to go see a specialist by the name of  Dr. Scott Kamelle. I am told that the specialist is a Gyn Oncologist and that it's just precautionary.

I had to have an ultrasound so they could have a view of everything going on. The results showed that the lining was extremely thick and that since my body wasn't naturally getting rid of it that I was going to need a D&C and that the doctor that I was being sent to would preform it.
