the biopsy results were as they expected - a lymphatic malformation. this was what we were expecting but such a relief to hear. He is going to refer us on to the gastroenterology department as he feels at this stage it is more in their domain, but obviously if needed we could be referred back again. it will be Epsom Hospital that will be doing day to day care.
The operation was uneventful as far as he was aware, a little lymph fluid was loose in the abdomen, but the lymph nodes looked ok, and he said they removed all of the 'lump' part which was about 50% of the total.
Our follow up appt with the surgeon is scheduled for the 20th Nov. On a more exciting note josh took his first steps today - 2 staggers towards falling on to Tom! just before his first birthday and only a week after major surgery, we are very proud!!
