  • Going to Indy.

    Hi everyone!

    The CT Scan and latest blood work came back normal. However, since the lab report indicated that there was a mixed germ cell, and it was embroynic carcinoma, that surgery is a strong possibility.

    My oncologist spoke directly with the doctors down in Indianapolis since in his estimation it is not a cut and dry case. I had stage 1B. He thinks it would do me good for them to view the slides, and all the reports directly.

    So, they are making an appointment to go down there. In the interim, they will do surveillence.

    Sounds like an excellent plan. How soon is your appointment?
