All good - dCarver abdo mass

[dcarver]

Haven't shared with too many peeps. 

'Palpable lump RHS abdomen'.

Little c cyst, Big C Cancer or who knows what?

Lots of big C in family history.

Doc's showing too much concern and FAST appts made, scary.

Happy to report results back in this AM. 

Lump is a result of previous calcified hematoma kidney surgery. IOW, a deformity from previous surgery, minor chance big hernia. No distinct mass, no BigC, no big deal! 

Appointment for surgeon to be scheduled.

In mean time, going to take FULL advantage of this thing called life.

Going riding tomorrow!

Many deep felt Thank You's to you who know who you are.

Good news Don!

Really glad to hear, Don.  A few years ago, I had a large mass show up in a chest xray.  Couldn't feel it because it was behind ribs but imaging showed it to be a 9 cm (softball size) lump.  Turned out to be a non-malignant "teratoma".  Surgery to remove was fairly extensive but turned out well.  Like you, I spent a few scary days after the initial xray waiting for the CAT scan and diagnosis.

But, I'll take the GREAT news!
