As some of you have probably heard or read , was to go in the 18th for a surgery . Yesterday had to go get a pre-surgery physical , which involved the normal EKG , Chest X-Ray , CBC , H&P BMP Blood work . Which I guess is good . Well got some somewhat shocking results from the blood work and chest x-ray . Found a midsize mass on the right lung and the blood work was bad as well . Took more blood to do cultures on , filled these 4 bottles that had clear and tea colored liquid already in them and added the blood to them . So now I got 2 -3 days before I know what is going on . This is the hard part , the waiting !!!!!!! Feel fine , other than my back and legs are killing me , which is what I'm going in for surgery for going to remove a couple pieces of bone that are rubbing on my siotic nerve and put in a SCS spinal cord stimulator implant to help control the pain and all the other stuff that is going on with my back and legs . Did the test run on the SCS and wow it was great , that is what got me to the surgery . Guess you could say I'm just a TAD BIT NERVOUS . So for now got to deal with this other stuff first , then the surgery will follow , I hope . It"s the waiting and not knowing .

I'm praying that you receive good news from your test and all goes well on the 18th. Back pain is hard to live with and it's good to hear that you already know this will help you. Thoughts and Prayers are with you.

I sympathize w/ your anxiety, bro. I have faith everything'll be kosher and blood tests will show so. X-rays can be misleading. Chin up. Prayers for the best and that your quickly on your way to surgery, recovery and back at whatever helm gives you smiles. My # will be in your PM BOX if you need an ear.

Best of wishes for you CJ.Keep your head on straight.It's a good time to sit and tie up a couple of jigs,nothing that you have ever tried before.Take your time and make something up that you'll be waiting and "jonesing" to try when you get all better.

Hey man keep your head up and stay positive. I like Salty's advice, tie something that you absolutely cannot wait to tryout when you get through with recovery and physical therapy. The therapy is gonna hurt but remember it is for your own good. Before you know it you'll be kicking as high as you ever did.
