Today was my follow up to my CT scan and now only chest X-ray every 6 months (German theory of less radiation) I think not as my chest was clearly visible in that CT..but I digress.
Last time (2yr) there was a swollen lymph node near my anastomosis. Ok. We will “watch it” was the mode. I work myself into a mild internal freak out prior to scans.
Scan was Wednesday. I ask the radiologist after the scan about said node (I do like that they consult with you after AND hand you a disc with your CT) he said it’s there but no change...ok. I’ll take that as a “no worries”
Fast forward to today. Oncologist says there is a place of concern on my liver. CT with contrast next week. Just in case. This is going to be like my boobs. 10 years of mammograms every 6 months. I thought they would get me, but nooooooo it had to get me in the a$$ instead....I’m sorta over “let’s keep an eye on that”....what are the odds of it really being anything?? Really??
I vote I play ostrich and avoid doctors for a while....meh, who am I kidding? I’ll go. Not happily, but I’ll go.
