I am the father...oh wait Two weeks ago I got a tumor removed from the back of my neck. The doctors told me it looked like a Lymphona or Carcinoma. They said it looked malignant. They sent the tumor from my neck to the lab. I got the results back. They were wrong. It is a sclerotic Fibroma. It is benign. The doctor wants to do further tests because it is usually associated with another disease in which multiple tumors grow inside you.
Wasn't too worried about Carcinoma though I am glad it turned out not to be. That one is slow growing and easy to beat. Lymphoma was the one I was worried about. What a relief it is to hear it is also not that. They are going to check for multiple hamartoma which is the disease that spawns tumors all over the inside of your body. I don't want that either. Going to do MRI's to make sure. Also going to do a brain scan to check for Lhermitte-Duclos a benign brain tumor.
good stuff that it doesn't seem so bad, but hope everything is good with the other thing everyone stay healthy!
Good news! Give me a yell next time though- I could have taken that out for you, and saved someone a bunch of money....
