I decided to put this in a separate topic from my original post.
I finally got an email from my doctor this evening stating there is no evidence of cancer in either my bone scan or MRI. Apparently they think the lesions noted in the initial x-rays are related to my rheumatoid arthritis and there is the hope that the pain in my hip will improve after the special cortisone injection I was given a week ago. They say that improvement might occur over several weeks.
I want to thank each and everyone of you who offered hugs, prayers and encouraging thoughts over the last week. My fear in mentioning it before getting the diagnosis was whether you would be upset if I caused undue concern when none was needed. I'm glad I chose to let you know because I don't know how I would have gotten through the last week without your kind thoughts and prayers. Thinking about it I know if any of you were in the same situation, I'd want to know so I could offer the same encouragement and prayers to you. So thank you. I'm so relieved. The "c" word is so terrifying making the last week very stressful.
