        My husband called the insurance company to get a date and we already have! They sent a temporary card via email to print so I went today. Appt was with a PA who then had my surgeon come in to check. I actually have 2 nodes and the lump I am feeling is not a lode, the lump is directly by a lode, surgeon wasn’t sure what it is/if it is related. At this time surgeon said the lymph nodes are too small to do a needle biospy, check them every few days and if they get bigger come back in right away, go back in January for the surgeon to check them. So now it’s just a wait and see I guess
