Genetic Testing

The first step has been made for the genetic testing. My oncologist said before he will send a letter to the insurance company, it would be better if I saw a genetic counselor first. If they agree that I should be tested, that will be a little extra clout for insurance to approve it. I am waiting for the genetic counselors to call to set up an appointment. I have no clue really what to expect, but time will tell. Obviously. I love stating the obvious to people as to make myself look like an ass.

On another note, I have been asked by a friend (Dawn) not to use the term "alien baby" when referring to what I have been coughing up. I do not want to make my readers (Dawn) feel like they (Dawn) can't read my blog because it makes them gag when I say alien babies (Dawn). So, to any readers out there (Dawn) who I may have made a little ill, I am deeply sorry (Dawn) and I will think of another term to use that is less repulsive to people (Dawn).

Ckickets....crickets.....crickets....

Ok. How about one of the following, feel free to vote via comment section:

Mucus ball
Green glop
Karch (I found that on the web)
Chest cheese
Lugenhagen
Loogie boogie

I guess that's all I can come up with. Feel free to add your own, too.

PS I someitmes call it "nasty mass", as in, "i've been coughing up a nasty mass all morning."
