Ok, so here's the scoop. On May 9 I go into the hosp. and they do what's called a thorascopy. They're going to make an incision into my right side and stick a camera in there and look around, then take a biopsy and then leave me in the hosp. with a drain in my side for 3-4 days. Yuck. I could think of lots of ways I'd rather spend my time. General anesthesia so that means all the forced coughing and junk afterward--gee that oughta be fun with a tube coming out of my lung. Not looking forward to this AT ALL.
