What the heck is a Pre-screening?

Well, I'll tell you.  When you have cancer, if you go over 24 hours without going to a hospital or having some labs taken, they make up things to bring you in.

Just kidding.

I had labs drawn,  I peed in a cup (No I'm not pregnant, if you were wondering), did an EKG, had another x-ray done,  Signed some documents saying that I might die going under, and yeah.

The nurse also said-- I hope you had a big lunch, because you should be fasting now!  Oops.  I went home and ate real quick before I started fasting.   Then I had Jello for dinner!

I guess now I'm ready for the biopsy tomorrow.

They consider this a major surgery--- I've never had a major surgery before.  I had tubes put in my ears when I was a baby and I had my wisdom teeth taken out by a oral surgeon, but never been to the hospital for an actual surgery.

Wish me luck!
