Emoticon Unhappy More surgery....

More surgery, but the good news, I have a diagnosis. Rectus abdominis endometriosis: a report of two cases -- Coeman et al. 78 (925): 68 -- The British Journal of Radiology

I did not need a ct scan. She knew exactly what I had and knew exactly where to look. She had me stand and cough and could feel the tumor buldge. She said this is very underdiagnosed. The Lap I had went under the muscle, so they could not see it. I have surgery the 24th of this month. It is outpatient and should only be down a few days. The mass will get tested for cancer, but is very rare. So, scared for another surgery, as this is bigger than a Lap, but glad this will be over.
