Lulu's been asked to be a subject for a cardiology test here at the main campus at UCSF;Parnassus. The cardiologist is discussing the specifics of what the study entails and whether or not Lulu might want to participate.
The biopsy this morning lasted over 2 hours. Lulu told me that they were very thorough and that they were very concerned about the cancer cell's appearance or morphology. They also had difficulty in getting to one of the lymph nodes that seemed to be deep in the area under Lulu's arm. The results of the biopsy will be discussed with the Oncologist at tomorrow's 11:30 AM appointment.
I never knew that there were so many different types of test done for cancers, but I have learned a lot of new things these last two months that I never should of had to discover. Our day started at 8 AM MRI and hopefully end sometime around 6 PM. (Lulu's been poked for blood or for injection of radioactive dyes 5 times in one day, and will have at leas two more during tomorrows schedule). I told her that we had better get the word out that she has a medical condition, because if not people are going to think that she's a heroin addict!
I'm hoping that Lulu so tired after the day's testing regiment that she'll sleep really well and I will not feel guilty for the rusty door motel?
