My Dr. Appointment

Lisa, any news yet?
Sending best thoughts.

I think I can safely say that we are all waiting with multiple crossed fingers and toes for your update, hoping they will be able to pinpoint the problem quickly and the remedy is straight forward. Waiting must be even harder for you at this point because you are too tired to work away that waiting time.

You all are too kind! My blood work showed no signs of Valley Fever and my ultra-sound showed no signs of blood clots. Now the wait is the cat scan results, which I will know on 05/07. I will update you then!

**Catty1** · 05-02-2007, 12:29 PM

WHEW! Two nasties eliminated.

I hope any prescription calls for increased exposure to PURRING!

HUGS!

Do something especially nice this weekend, something special.
I know how it is when you're waiting.

**orangemm** · 05-02-2007, 03:17 PM

Yes, treat yourself kindly. The waiting is the worst, I can remember that.

Keeping fingers crossed.

((hugs))

My cat scan has shown there is definitely something on my lung, but still don't know for sure what it is. I will be going for more testing for breathing, sleeping, and another cat scan in a couple months to see if there are any changes in the area. They said I do not have full capacity of my lung so an extensive breathing test in the hospital is ordered. So, looks like the wait is still on.

Gosh, Lisa, how scary!

Seems like if there is "something on your lung" that they'd want to find out what it is....?

Sure hope the rest of the tests help you find a solution and that it's nothing really serious.

**Catty1** · 05-07-2007, 10:06 PM

I would hope that if they suspected the nasty C word that they would have you in in an instant! So maybe waiting is a good sign.

Lisa - I am sorry - but when you said they found something on your lung, I was thinking "HAIRBALL". Sorry, I just went warped!

Hope you could get a smile from that anyway....

HA-HA...you may be on to something there. I sure breath enough of it!

I'm thinking it must not appear, at this point, to be the big C. More tests and future cat scans will prove this. They pulled past years x-rays and the area was not there then. Good is it hasn't changed since March 1st, bad is it isn't any better either, so I don't know which is the better sign here. I'm sure they have to take all their steps due to insurance the way it is today. They said if I get worse or more symptoms to call right away.

I'm am feeling a little better with a little more energy so that could be a good sign!! This has been going on since February and it's all been pretty depressing.

Lisa, I sure hope that it's nothing serious and that it's something that can be easily treated. I'm glad to hear that you've been feeling a little bit better. I hope that you can get back to normal very soon. You continue to remain in my thoughts and prayers. Please take care. (((HUGS)))

**Reachoutrescue** · 05-08-2007, 01:15 AM

I have missed this post. I am so sorry you have not been feeling well. I will pray that all your tests come back clear. From what I read, the Dr's are not thinking is the big C, so that is good. Chin up, even though it's tough. Take care and please keep us posted.

**Freedom** · 05-08-2007, 07:18 AM

Hi Lisa, glad to hear several things have been eliminated. And glad that you are feeling a bit better. Here's hoping that the spot on the lung is something easily treated.
