Thanks so much Toni for your concern. She is doing ok. They are giving her mega drugs. I'm having a terrible time getting my father to communicate and I think it's exhaustion and fear. They (the surgeons) feel they got it all out. I believe they said she would have 12 inches taken out of bowel. The actual tumor was about the size of a peanut (not the shell, but the actual nut) and so far, so good. This is my step-mother.

She will be in for about a week, is running a fever, so they've got her coughing like crazy to prevent pneumonia (sp).

I don't know about tests for Fibromyalgia but there is an excellent board for it on

http://www.webmd.com

They have their own group. It's a good source for other issues as well. Very informative and they have great chats with various experts from around the US. Everything from smoking cessation to Urinary incontinence. There is a full Rx encyclopedia and frequently and RN who mediates.

Love, Michele
