NAW Posted November 11, 2010 Report Share Posted November 11, 2010 (edited) Great report and Pics Mike, I to have had t0 live through the fears of being diagnosed with TC. I've had several doctors do all kinds of examinations down there!.. Luckely, I've had positive out comes both times. I did however have to go through two opperations, but no TC. I'm sure things will turn out great for you! Edited November 11, 2010 by NAW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crappieperchhunter Posted November 11, 2010 Report Share Posted November 11, 2010 Thx for the fish porn Mike. Always enjoy you pictures and words. About the other stuff, hang tough. If "C" is the worst part of it then I hope for you to have the same recovery as my brother. He went through it at 24 and had his second child 2 years afterwards and hasn't looked back. Good luck with whatever comes your way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJL Posted November 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2010 Thanks again guys for the incredible support you’ve given me - I truly can't express my gratitude towards the whole OFC community. I spent the last couple hours replying to all the PM’s I could and will continue to do so for as long as they come – I’ve even been informed that one angling crush of mine (and many) has read this thread I sneaked a few quick looks at the ultrasound pics but as someone who hadn’t taken biology beyond the twelfth grade, one fuzzy blob looked exactly like the next fuzzy blob. I’ll have to continue my wait for a diagnosis ps - What's "Down & Dirty"? It involves the careful and deliberate attempt to manipulate rod angles (while fighting strong, powerful, or out of control fish) so that hooked fish will mysteriously (and magically) swim right to the rod tip...So that you can pounce on them...Especially if it’s a fish worthy of a hero shot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irishfield Posted November 12, 2010 Report Share Posted November 12, 2010 (edited) Remember Mike.. no matter what old protocol was, you have every right to see your entire file and scans. We have copies of Jen's MRI's... Edited November 12, 2010 by irishfield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jewelbee Posted November 12, 2010 Report Share Posted November 12, 2010 Rick told me of your post. I can't imagine how frightening it is to go through what you are right now. However, you sound like you have a good support network. Don't hesitate to lean on them (or us). Also want to reassure you that if you do have the surgery...No difference afterward Sending Good Karma waves you way! Jewelbee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

solopaddler Posted November 12, 2010 Report Share Posted November 12, 2010 Just saw this now. There's no doubt in my mind you'll be fine, stay positive bud. For what it's worth a prayer has been sent. If and when you're ready for some more chrome I have a special place that I think I need to show you.

wallacio Posted November 12, 2010 Report Share Posted November 12, 2010 Hi Mike, I'm really sorry to hear about what you may be facing. I have every confidence that you will beat it and will be back doing battle with chrome bullets before you know it. BTW, I'm glad to hear that you and your buddy found a few! It's a great river huh?
