Welcome to Debbie’s CaringBridge Site
Sign In to Show Your SupportSo after another long bout with diarrhea, I've called and made me an appointment with my PCP. She has run all sorts of tests and now wants me to have a CT Scan to rule out other stuff. I went to Duke Regional and had the scan done on a Wednesday. She called me that evening and said the scan shows a large mass in my pelvic area and several other masses, she suspects ovarian cancer. My CA125 is 1521 (normal is 35 and under). I'll have a MRI done next Wednesday and she's already scheduled me to meet with an gyn/oncologist/surgeon on the following Thursday.
Had the MRI and it looks like the masses have already increased in size.... Met with Dr. Brittany Davidson and she is almost 9 months pregnant. She wants to do the surgery the next Friday, her last day at work. We agree to the surgery. I have to have a Covid test the Wednesday before, it's got me more nervous than the big surgery... just knowing they are going to stick that Q-tip up my nose! Covid test was a drive-thru in one of the Duke parking lots. Test came back negative, I'm all set for surgery.
