RE16's Mass Growing in my Eye Experience

Mass Growing in my Eye

Well darn it, I recently had my gall bladder out and thought that would be my last surgery for awhile it turns out I was wrong. For several weeks now I have had a really irritated very red eye. I have known that I have a small growth in it as it has been there for years and the eye docs I have seen have not been concerned about it. Well last Monday I went to see an eye specialist and he was quite concerned. He said there is a slight chance it can be cancerous and it must come out....oh great! To say I was upset would be a major understatement. I left his office a bit stunned with a vile of drops to put in eye (if the drops help then no surgery, they are not helping.) I decided to go see my oncologist and get his opinion. He saw me right away (he is such a good dr) and reassured me that he has never seen an eye cancer in that location but that it is possible. He also told me the dr. that I am seeing for my eye is very good. He said it is a small mass and if cancerous would be in the beginning stages. Surgery is scheduled for the 10th I will let you all know how it turns out.
