My PCP called this morning--and said that the ultrasound images showed a dense mass about 5 cm in length.  He wants to have a CAT Scan of the area--so everyone can see what's involved. I'm assuming that it's not good news--that some form of surgery is going to have to be done. I'm awaiting his word that the insurance will OK a scan--and we'll go from there. The surgery will let them remove the lump--and determine if it is benign or not. If not, then there will no doubt be treatment that will have to be done to the area.

I went to RSB session this morning--I felt that I was weak and not able to sustain any intensity. My thoughts kept circling back to the lump--and to what it will mean to have a serious problem with it. The articles on the topic--say that overall the presence of such an item is generally not serious or of concern. But there is always the outlying cases--and what has to be done with them.

So time marches on--and I do as well until I have to stop marching. Will do an RSB session in the morrow--and await the authorization by the insurance company so we can proceed.

Waiting, waiting, waiting--for the words from the mountain.
