Anyone want to talk me off the ledge?

Not literally, but I need support.

The spot on my ovary everone was hoping was a simple cyst has not resolved and upon ultrasound has turned out to be a "complex mass". Tonight I'll have an MRI and will learn the results on Friday. I expect it will turn out to be endometriosis but the idea that it could be mets has me scared silly.

I don't feel like I can share my feelings with DH right now. He's been amazingly supportive through my diagnosis and early treatment (4 chemos so far) but he's in the middle of laying off people at work and he could really use a break from worry.

When "you have ovarian cancer" is one of the preferred results you know things are scary!

<<<<Lulu>>>>>, sending peaceful thoughts your way.  I am so sorry you need to wait until friday for results, the MRI should be read immediately, why not results tomorrow??

My appointment is for 9:30 pm on a Sunday (whoda thunk they did diagnostic tests on a Sunday night?) at a satellite location, so I'd imagine it will be Monday or Tuesday before my MRI's read. My MO promised to call if he gets the results early, but my next chemo and meeting with the MO are on Friday morning, so if we need to have an in-depth conversation about how to proceed from here we'll have it then.

Sometimes the ledge is where we feel we are and are just going to fall into total darkness - we've all been there.  Can't tell you not to worry or be concerned as I know I would be.  Just try to stay busy, have lunch with a friend, etc.  Time passes faster when we don't have to much idle time to think and worry.

Prayers that all will be ok.
