Waiting for a call

All of my information has been sent to Emory and now we are just waiting for them to call with an appointment. I did find out that Dr. Carlson will not schedule me until he receives the films from my Mammograms, Ultrasounds and MRI, along with the biopsy slides from the pathologist.  Since all of these do not travel well through fax they were fed ex shipped today and should arrive tomorrow or Thursday.  Yet another delay.

On a side note this means that Josh and I get to go to the crew ball this Saturday, and we always have a fun time there, and I get to take my future sister-in-law to the Hollie Fair.  Just trying to look on the bright side of things.

Waiting a few more days to get in is not the end of the world.  I am in a little upset, but that is just because I'm ready to get this out and move on.  The surgeon in Atlanta has come highly recommended and with that always comes a little wait. 

I have answered a lot of the same questions lately so I think I will recap them for those of you that have not spoken with me:

1)  Are they going to take both breast?  My doctor here in P.C. is not going to biopsy the right before I go to Emory (which is nice since that is just one more surgery).  He is going to leave it up to the doctor in Atlanta.  So I'm not really sure the answer to that question yet.

2)  How can we keep updated when you are in surgery?  Josh and/or my Mom will be updating the blog while I cannot.

3)  Do they think the spots on the right are also DCIS?   The feeling so far is, no.  Although they cannot be sure without a biopsy.  What I am not sure of is if the doctor in Atlanta will go ahead a biopsy the right while I'm under anesthesia for the mastectomy or what his plans with include.  I'll just have to keep you all updated on that issue.

I ordered myself a Kindle last Friday and really hope that it comes in before we leave for Atlanta.  If anyone has ANY suggestions for good books to buy, let me know.  I enjoy just about anything.  I have not read for leisure in forever!
