The tumor in my hand was and endometrial inclusion(?). It was under the service and the nerves where trying to form around it. He said I gave him his gray hair doing that surgery. (He was already salt and pepper before!)
I'm not sure what the name of the skin cancer is that runs in my family. It's all on my mom's side and mom is the 4th generation to have it, all surface so far with a few that were a bit deeper than just surface moles. My mom is one of 8 kids and 6 of the 8 have had it so far. We also have a link to basil cell nevus syndrome and the cleft lip and palate that D (and my niece) had could be linked to that syndrome.
My lymph nodes were checked a few months back. I believe they checked them for my thyroid (hypothyroidism), but I could be wrong. I will add this to my list of questions to ask the doctors though.
My doctor is out of Loyola.
I've got questions to ask the doctor and want to look all of this up online as well. However, it seems that there's alot of negative on the internet and don't want to get down in the dumps too much about it. My mom is helping with what questions I should be asking, so that helps a ton!
