Aww, thank you so much for the information. I think it's just the waiting that is the hardest on everyone. We really just don't know what to expect, as I was so dazed when the doctor called and said the biopsy revealed, Vulvar Cancer in stage 3, and she wanted to do this other test to see how far it has advanced, I just said, " thank you" and hung the phone up...I then wondered, how she knew it was in stage 111 just from the biopsy? How could she tell this if she didn't know how far it had spread? Ya know? I should have asked her. Anyway, my oldest daughter came in from Colorado, my other daughter is coming in from Texas tonight, and my son will be there with me, so that will help. Also of course my husband of 35 years will be there...They are all taking me to the Casino tonight, so that will be fun, if just for a while... :o) I will try and get back with you as soon as I can after the procedure...Don't know if I'll be able to sit at the puter? You think? What stage are you in, and what is your prognosis? Any information will be greatly appreciated...Thank you so much, Deb***
