4 years and one week ago I met with a surgeon to do a biopsy. At the time he said there were often false positives on scans and that he will often find nothing when doing the biopsy.

| Not a pretty thing to look at |
He further qualified things by saying if it was cancer, it looked limited and probably no chemotherapy. I was not really buying it by this point. Four years ago today, I had the biopsy. The first words I heard was I needed to call a surgeon immediately - even before my wife and I left the parking lot. No pathology report yet run, obviously, but it was moving closer to being official.
On the good news side of things, I got my first tattoos. I probably would never have otherwise gotten one. I like them, but I know my personality, the second I was done, I would always question my selection. 😄
"A frond-like/villous, fungating, ulcerating non-obstructing mass was found....This was biopsied with a cold forceps for histology. Injection(tattooing) chromoscopy with India Ink was performed."
I planned on doing some #triathlon training today after my disconnect from chemotherapy, but this round hit me pretty hard so slept more. I really like marking these days with #triathlon training, but will do something tomorrow for sure.
