where in your leg is it? how big is it? how far from major arteries/veins is it?

[JN210]

Its close to my bone, im going to guess that it must be pretty serious seeing as how its been like this since January of this year, its in my knee. This weekend is my last to be free...next week im off to roschester for this.

Agreed, we took my dad to Mayo for his cancer, it was the best, worst experience of my life. The doctors/administrators were GREAT. I really didn't know doctors had personalities/compassion until I went there.

Anyway, sorry to hear. So, taking it a bit further here, is it benign or malignant? That makes a huge difference. I'm assuming its malignant since they are escalating it to Mayo, but you didn't say.

Good luck, if they caught it soon enough you should be in pretty decent shape from my experience. You'll be back in no time!

PS, time to have a benefit so you can finish your car...haha jk!

lol, yeah, ive heard good things about the doctors there. As for it being benign or malignant, he doesnt know..it is a sports injury so it shouldn't be as bad as most. ha, as for my car...I might be able to at least throw on the exhaust.

Good luck dude...

[weshole]

Sorry to hear dude.

[zbrown]

good luck man, hopefully it is just an easy in and out, and it is benign

[hondaking424]

my mom had pollio when she was young and has been to mayo a couple times for work on her knees. She said all the doctors and nurses were really nice and do amazing work.

[Rexwagon]

Definatley throw on a benifit it it is malignant.

[PSiedTSi]

Just out of curiosity, why hasn't he even looked at it himself? Fargo isn't horrible for cancer treatment, not to mention you usually need a referral for Mayo(generally meaning its been checked out already, etc). Just curious I guess.

[JN210]

I would say thats up to my parents.

[civic91]

that sucks. good luck.

Oh, so your parents decided just to go to Mayo? If so, thats cool that the doctor gave you a referral then because I know it's pretty stringent to actually get in. We fought for a couple of months before we got the neccessary "authorization".

Sorry for asking so many questions, it's all just really fresh for me, so curious how your process is working, and if I can help you out at all.

That's one hell of a religious doctor to say that line when you ask him a serious question.
