Ok so a few weeks back I posted about being told by my doctor the I had an abnormal pap, and had precancerus cells. That I needed to see a specialest for a $480 dollar test that had tro be paid up front and would tell me if I acctually had cancer. Well today nearly a month later I get this nice little letter from my doctor?

Dear melissa,
It was a pleasure to see you at our clinic. Your pap test were normal. There is no need for further testing at this time. I look forword to seeingf you at your next scheduled appointment.

Yours truly,
My doctor

So nothing was ever wrong? I had so many sleepless nights fore nothing, I had to tell my husband I might have cancer for no reason al all? I don't get it its eathere that or they sent me someone elses all clear letter. What if I had already forked out all that money? I coukd have already had a wls date you know that's all I was waiting on, I feel like I just got a dear john letter. Well I tell you I'm marching into their office first thing in the morning and demanding nicely of corse some sorta explanation. Well I'm sorry but I just had to vent. Oh and do you think I'm right to feel this way? I don't normally get this upset but come on this is a big ut oh on thir behalf eather way.
Thanks and God bless you all!
Melissa

Wow, I'd be FURIOUS too.

Don't let it ruin your weekend, though; you can't do anything until Monday. I always tell my kids that if the "bad guys" make us agitated on our days off, then they win.  On Monday be calm but outraged and ask them what's going on.

I am so very sorry you had to go through that.  I had a similar experience-except they did surgery on me to get to the lymph nodes to test them.  I had to  go under anesthesia-and I got a 6 inch scar on my neck-and it put my weight loss surgery off for at least an extra month and a half...When I got the news that the lymph nodes in my chest and lungs were negative-(no cancer-woohoo!)I considered myself so fortunate that I was ok-that the last thing I wanted to do was be angry at anyone.  I felt like I was given a second chance at living a wonderful life-and now I will be getting a third chance with my WL surgery....

I would want to know why this happened too-but I wouldn't let it ruin my weekend, especially since you could be rejoicing!!!!  You have already spent enough time being scared, upset and worried.

I know you are upset that maybe they made you worry for nothing, but stop and look at the big picture.  You Dont Have Cancer!  Rejoice and enjoy the weekend.  I am a 3 year cancer survivor who had to have a fairly high risk open TAH-BSO weighing 406 pounds and am happy to still be here cancer free.  But really, please take some time to be happy you are cancer free! 

Friends are the family we choose for ourselves.

Thanks for the kind replys and the words of incuragement, but I'm finding myself unable to let myself belive that this is true. How do I know at this point that the letter wasent a mistake. No one ever called from the office to tell me that it was a false positive or therwise. I really just want a person to tell me I'm have the all clear, after all a person told me that my test was abnormal. I have hope that this is true but I won't belive it or let my gard down tell I know for sure.
Thanks again,
Melissa
