Need some prayers...

I just need to get this off my chest, for the past 2 -3 years my CBC (complete blood count) has been off. I had seen a hematologist prior to my surgery because I needed to get cleared to have the surgery. They dismissed it as being a former smoker, having sleep apnea which could all affect my red blood cells (supposedly).  I had my first post-op blood work done in November, and sent the results to my surgeon and also to my PCP. She noticed that my counts had not improved and had some additional concerns with my calcium, Vit. D and again with my RBC's. So they sent me for a Bone Density scan and a mamogram, not sure why a mamogram because I had never complained to this PCP about anything with my breasts. She had no knowledge of any prior breast problems that I had and I have no family history of breast issues.

I had forgotten but in 2004 I had a mamogram because of a lump, which turned out to be a fibriod. It had been so long ago that I didn't even remember to tell my Dr about it. I submitted those mamo. films and ultra sound films to the new radiology Dr when they did my test last week. Anyways, yesterday I get a letter in the mail saying that they have found a suspicious area and need to do additional testing.

I am just asking that you guys please remember me in your prayers. I am having a tough time right now with various aspects of my personal life and I really need some support. My next tests are scheduled for Jan. 15th.

Thanks and sorry to drag this on.

God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference...

Susan... (((BIG HUGS))) to you. Try not to be too scared right now. Just wait until the next test results are in. I know it is very frightening. I went through this same exact scare 3 years ago.. and thanfully it was confirmed it was just fibroids. I will pray yours turns out the same. I also hope whatever other challenges and hard time you are facing now, will be resolved in the best and quickest possible way for you.

Don't be sorry for your post! we are here for this exact thing! to help each other through things.. Not just weight loss surgery, but all challenges we face. Please keep us posted. I will pray for you to be healthy and happy!
