Unhappy I find out tomorrow!

Hi everyone. I thought things were going pretty well for me. I was able to get everything together(all of the medical) in less than a month from my consultation appointment. Low and behold, I find out tomorrow if I have uterine cancer and will have to have a hytorectomy. I'm not as scared as i am disapointed that this might not let me get my bypass surgery. Needless to say, the thought of having to have a major surgery at my present size. (325lbs) scares me to death. The biggest motivater to get the bypass is to lose weight, be more healthy, and tolerate a major surgery in the future. I am praying to God that my news is good and I will be able to move forward with my much anticipated weight loss surgery. I would appreciate your possitive thoughts and prayers!

wow i'm so sorry. Let us know. I think this is why they always tell us women to get mamograms, paps, etc before the GBS just to make sure. My thoughts are with you
