Expect the Unexpected: Post-Op Meeting With My Surgeon


I can see how you might be, but don’t be disappointed by this statement: We do not have a definite answer right now.  (Are you surprised? I didn’t think so…)

Nothing bad came out of the appointment with my surgeon today.  If anything, we got what we were ultimately looking for:  For the doctors on my case to do ALL the searching they could possibly do and NOT tell us anything until they were absolutely sure of my diagnosis.  Currently my surgeon is using his connections at other hospitals to get me second opinions on what could be happening pathologically in my brain.  He is working fast and as hard as he can to do this for us and gears ARE turning.  We set up appointments tonight to get things going on our end in preparation for the diagnosis he, (Dr. Moulding), and his colleagues come up with in the next few days.  I could get into the details of the two possible pathology results the doctors are discussing, but it would be irrelevant at this point to do so until the guys who know what they are talking about, are SURE.  My family and I are feeling very confident that things are headed in the right direction and I WILL update everyone as I come to know more info.  As always, your positive energy, support and prayers are the best thing YOU can send my way right now!  Much love!
