Wednesday, June 07, 2006 "Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." ~ Mark Twain ~ Pic of the day ...

*** I had a great night sleep .. woke up took 2 more CB, still didn’t get me as “UP & AWAKE” that it should, or rather, that I’m use to .. and keep in mind I’ve been off CB as long as I’ve been OFF training (just about)…. Maybe slightly I felt SOME energy, I really doubt it though… so I am feeling better overall … took a shower (Sarge Shut up) , I felt kinda dizzy & my equilibrium is off … unfortunately my shower doesn’t have those “oh $h!t” handles like they do in the hotel bathrooms, you know, like the ones in Cancun so you can hold on after the prior evenings “Booze Cruise” …. I am about to leave for work when I get the call … my doctors office … After further examination of my CT scan it appears that my right kidney, already with Mild Hydro (sorry this will be confusing for some & I am really OVER TIRED of explaining it), has progressed. Toss previous report from ER doc out the window. In generic terms the inside of the kidney is enlarged, that is the “collecting system” … and is well, bigger than it should be. The reason? They don’t know … Diet & training related – NOPE .. possible kidney stones? Ehh maybe? Calcium / ‘lack’ of water related? MAYBE onset of 1st signs of damage from chemotherapy? Very Likely … Still possibility of kidney stones? “We need to do more tests ….” So it appears, on the move again, My primary already spoke to another MD that I had last seen in the OR to input a stent in my ureter to drain me, as I gained 15-20 lbs in 2 days … yes TWO days, not from binging, as I did not lead a lifestlye like this is ANY MANNER, but from every day life, being hunched over my desk at work, with a heating pad on my back, for one month before it got that severe … commence Dec 03 – Jan/Feb 04 until my cancer diagnosis…. ANYWAY … My primary (I her) already called the Urologist & got me in to see him this morning … rush rush rush = serious = don’t panic *Bunny*, hold back the tears, do NOT crack = happy I am treated VIP style … (*snaps fingers* "Don't you know who I am????") thus, again, tell yourself Mandi, Cancer is your blessing … I shared my pics with the ladies at the front desk of the old, yet 'new' docs office … I scare people with my presence and overall love for life & huge smiles when they see me & then read my chart … & look at me like, yup this one is crazy After the last week of the mandatory explaining of everything & anything health related to 4 nurses & 3 doctors (my oncologist and his staff not included, they will be next I’m sure) The final call was deemed **tentative of course** a “cystoscopy, bilateral retrograde, possible stent placement” … Although some other things need to be addressed & done (more Kidney based ) , very generically, this is what that means “Cystoscopy/bilateral retrograde is a diagnostic test that allows the doctor to look into the urethra and bladder. Dye is then injected into the ureters and an x-ray is taken.” The U doc did ask if I do a lot of ab work (LMFAO, um NO, not enough actually …) b/c I a very fit stomach when he was ‘pushin’ around I am also one of the healthiest patients ANY of these doctors have EVER seen, all of them … they are bewildered, esp. given my current situation & previous history. Again SATISFIED with that … SO FRIDAY … 'Surgery' … Yee Haw, another day I have to make up here at this lovely job … This *Bunny* ain’t going anywhere… except to my parents house to EAT some yummy food … & visit with my puppy … OH .. I almost forgot … unscheduled early urinalysis showed no blood in urine, infection all gone … yippee .. one mountain down, a lifetime to go .. Good thing I was blessed with these legs ***
