"Huh?!?!?!?" is right.
Yes...'not benign' and later 'not malignant'...but, let's not forget 'abnormal cells in the lesions after the cystoscopy'. So, cells that were ablated during that time were found to be abnormal, not benign, and not malignant. Confused as I am? Second opinion sounds good--it is just getting in to see someone who will take me.
Well, I asked my Uro directly, "If it is not benign and not malignant, what is it?" He said it is "gone" because he ablated them but we have to keep 'checking' with cystoscopies".
I know what you are saying, Mike; it seems 'benign' would make sense and that is a GREAT thing--until he says 'not benign'.... (?)
I haven't spoken with one person that says it made sense.... In order to confirm this I have to get in to see another doctor and, as you probably noticed, U of Chicago suggested I keep going to my Uro; although, I am going to see what I can do with Northwestern....
Thanks, Mike. Yep...it is a confusing mess.
