I hyad my first MRI the 'day of' my family's Christmas gathering. The neurologist called me two hours later to tell me about the tumor... it didn't get me down. Actually, I was kind of relieved because I have had horrific dibilitating headaches since I was 12 yo, and thought " yeah, I won't get headaches anymore." Unfortunately, the tumor had nothing to do with headaches, but finding it saved my eyesight! I went to my family's dinner and told them I had some news for them, "I would tell after we open gifts." They were all trying to guess.. like I was gonna have another baby, or getting married. I had my surgery 12 days later, 16 hours of surgery. Came thru it pretty well. I feel the more positive you are, the faster you heal. Hope all goes well with your biopsy.
-------------------- Never take away someones hope... it may be all they have left.
