That is wonderful news! Our thoughts are with you...hopefully it was just a nasty scare.

Great news!

We're still in shock, but it's a good kind of feeling!  We pray he's right about this.

Right on man. Hope everything works out for the best. Couldn't hurt to double down on the cabbage and broccoli for a while.

Ok, but I'll wash it down with beer!

Great news on your JH Doc's finding, Bill. Here's hoping that one is correct! In the meantime, I'm praying for you and hoping for the best.

[Pilgrim]

Have a drink to celebrate when you get home. Great news!

[Dave W]

Good news! No doubt you and your doctor will be watching things closely, but we're all hoping he's got it right.

[Nocturnal]

That's great news Bill!!

Positive thoughts, Bill... positive thoughts...

Remember to break down the word "disease" into it's constituent components... "not-at-ease..." so keep the negatives out of your life...!

Thanks to each and everyone of you!  Did have a bit of a party last night!  Next time, I want 100 % proof of disease before I go off thinking it's another round of treatments.  I feel like a dope even saying anything to anybody.  I am realistic though.  Anything can happen down the road, but I'll be more demanding of a definitive diagnosis next time.  The problem is now days they try to avoid anything invasive, even biopsies.  However,  diagnosing from scans is not an exact science yet.  So there's room for error.  Another factor in all of this is I have zero symptoms.  So all of the data doesn't point to disease  by any means.  As for positive thinking, I've got the nailed!!!

[Dave W]

Don't feel bad that you told us about it. You got some potential bad news, you wanted support and prayers. No reason to apologize for that.

Damn!  I've been busy the last ten days or so with my elderly mother being in the hospital.   I've not been on much so i was crestfallen to read this thread - at least at the start.  I'm relieved that it was a false positive - it's very nice to hear some good news nowadays.

[Highlander]

Bill, you just spoke openly amongst a bunch of guys you trust to have your back, no matter how far apart they may be...

[drbassman]

Thanks for the kind words guys.  You all are great!  I just feel a little stupid right now.  I'm getting over it!  Like I said, definitive tests next time!!!
