i have no words to describe something like this...we're pullin for you man. like someone else posted, read as much as possible about this as you can so you know the pros and cons of all the options and you can make as informed a decision as possible about what is best. Also i agree, get multiple oppinions about it.

I dont even know where to start......

My hand has been having this wierd pain lately, kind of like a dull, tender pain, it also feels sort of pressurized, very hard to describe.

So I went to the doctor, After a while of examining it he said he could not find anything wrong, but I insisted there was. So he said "lets go to radiology and check it out." So they proceed to take x-rays of my hand and such.

The doc sits me down and in a wierd monotone voice says "Im sorry but you have rare inoperable malignant fibero-sistic tumor in your left carpral vessele"

I said what does that mean, he then said "Im sorry but you have cancer of the fist"

WHAT THE FUCK? cancer of the fist?

He said that they can remove the "vessele" that runs through my hand and wrist, rendering my hand almost useless forever, or they can leave it alone monitor it and see if it regresses or stays the same size.

Fuck I dont want to be a gimp....

ALL THAT IN JUST ONE QUICK VISIT TO THE DOCTOR'S OFFICE WITH NO TESTS OR BIOPSIES. HMMMM, YOUR DOCTOR MUST BE A CLAIRVOYANT.

1. Collect all of your medical records and x-rays immediately. You are going to need copies of them when you visit a new physician and you don't want the delays of having individual doctors/hospitals sending them to each other.

2. Find one (1) primary care physician who is a specialist in this type of cancer and work with him to come to understand your options. Don't run from doctor to doctor. Work with one (1) and have HIM set you up for second oppinions if you need them - refering the results of the second oppinions back to him.

3. Be aggresive... there are usually a lot of options for this that you are unaware of... and the first doctor you visit is unaware of.

4. Educate yourself as much as possible... specifically about cancer and this type of cancer.
