Mom went to see the Gynecologic Oncologist today. His name is Dr. Thomas Lallas and he's at Lenox Hill. He did an exam and tried to get a sample of endometrial tissue. He's not sure if he was 100% successful and won't know for about a week. At that time, IF he was able to obtain endometrial tissue, he'll be able to tell us whether or not it's benign. If it turns out that the tissue sample was NOT endometrial, he'll have to do a saline hysteroscopy. He thinks that it's unlikely that it's malignant but needs to rule it out. For now, we just wait. I think that Mom is less anxious about the situation since speaking to him. He seemed to reassure her.
We're very grateful that is appears to be pretty innocuous and are looking forward to getting a clean bill of health and taking to the road.
I will update as I get information.
Thanks for checking in and for your thoughts and prayers.
Mom's Hebrew name is Yehudis Chana bat Sara Rivka.
