I got the pathologist report on the biopsy late this afternoon. The cancer was confirmed. The tumor was about 1.5 cm. CT scan suggested 2.5 cm. The lymph nodes were clear indicating that the cancer had been contained. No follow-up chemotherapy will be required. I will probably have a CT scan every six months for the rest of my life.
I will write in more detail tomorrow, but this team was fantastic. I was told by the husband of another of Dr. deHoyos’ patients that he was one of three thoracic surgeons doing TV assisted lung surgery. Will fill in details soon, hopefully tomorrow. Next doctor’s appointment will be Tuesday, May 20.
Thanks again for your interest and concern.
