I am so much better today and know that this is normal for BC. Lunch with friends today, headed to Denver to see the Rockies baseball team tonight and a fun science class on Wednesday so I'll be too busy to think about it much.

Thanks Mike and Jim for keeping me focused on the positives.

Vi,

Sorry to hear about the recurrence. As has been said, it is why to do those cystos and why not to skip them.

They caught it early and small and hopefully it is just another low grade T0.

From all your research you know that recurrence of low grade is high so it is why to keep a constant watch.

Still sucks when it happens though... :(

Vi, I know you were hoping for a "all clear", but a millimeter is very small, and they got it. Jim
