I went to see the surgeon this morning, and it is good news all round. The growth was a very low intensity cancer; I gather somewhat like the basal carcenomas my dermetologist takes from my skin routinely. The report has gone to an oncologist, who might or might not want to see me sometime after the holidays. It is now two weeks since I left hospital, so I can, once again, drive my car. I am thinking of going home early next week. I have another appointment with the surgeon in April, when he will probably order up another endoscopy to see how things are. All in all, very good news.
