Colon Cancer is in remission

I finished my chemo Aug 10th yeah!!! Aug 15th I got my blood drawn for the cancer markers, and on the 29th I had a CAT scan to make sure the cancer had not spread. 

I got a call from Dr. Hansen's office telling me I needed to see my gynecologist cuz the CAT scan showed a cyst on my ovary.  Ugh here we go again!  So I figure they will put me on birth control and I need a pap smear and mammogram anyway so I make an appt.  and I go to doctor Kammayer On Sept. 6th.

Well it turns out it's not a cyst in my ovary its a mass growing on the outside of my uterus and ovary.  It had shown up in the original CAT scan in January but they had not told me about it or done anything about it,  but it had grown over a cm since Jan. and it was very concerning to the doc. so he referred me to a gyno-oncologist in Salt Lake.  I go to him on Tues. Oct. 4th.  I am pretty much in the dark on any of the details and I don't really know what to expect.  I am pretty sure I will be having surgery to remove it, but I don't know the extent of the surgery or anything.  I just hope and pray it is NOT cancer!!!!
