Samples were taken for biopsy, but the tests were not sufficient to identify the cause of the images on the scan. After the procedure, I needed a catheter to void my bladder (ow!). The catheter was removed yesterday morning (Oh, what a relief it was !). The combination of the procedure and the catheter has left me physically weakened and sore. The next step will likely be a collection of cells directly from the source via a needle directed by x-ray imaging. That should happen in the two weeks. When the tissue is analyzed, the docs should be better able to determine what it is and how best to treat it.<br></p><p class="m_2564991005687923493ox-e5e6132fa0-default-style" style="font-size:12pt;font-family:helvetica,arial,sans-serif;color:#333333"><br></p><p class="m_2564991005687923493ox-e5e6132fa0-default-style" style="font-size:12pt;font-family:helvetica,arial,sans-serif;color:#333333">I have been staying with Nancy, my daughter-in-law, as our house had no power until early Thursday. I returned home yesterday. Janet, my guardian angel, has been helping out as I try to gain strength and heal from the intrusions to my body. She also has been keeping Darlene apprised of my condition.<br></p><p class="m_2564991005687923493ox-e5e6132fa0-default-style" style="font-size:12pt;font-family:helvetica,arial,sans-serif;color:#333333"><br></p><p class="m_2564991005687923493ox-e5e6132fa0-default-style" style="font-size:12pt;font-family:helvetica,arial,sans-serif;color:#333333">I'll try to keep you informed going forward.<br></p><p class="m_2564991005687923493ox-e5e6132fa0-default-style" style="font-size:12pt;font-family:helvetica,arial,sans-serif;color:#333333"><br></p><p class="m_2564991005687923493ox-e5e6132fa0-default-style" style="font-size:12pt;font-family:helvetica,arial,sans-serif;color:#333333">Dave</p></div>
