Tuesday, August 18, 2009 | A General Update story
Ok the good news is I don't have breast cancer, but I do have fibro cystic disease meaning I get fibrous cysts in my breasts, but they aren't malignant. The hospital was good enough to fax me a copy of the report this morning as soon as they had it typed up.  I will have to keep on top of things though to make sure because that could change but I'm not to worried about it. The stupid news is my INR is 4.8 this morning and once again I have to go off Coumadin for 2 days to get it back down then go back onto my regular dosing schedule and retest in 2 weeks. Hopefully my regular doctor will be back from vacation by then. Also Richard in answer to your queary No I do not think the exercise has anything to do with my higher INR levels as I bet I walk close to 10 miles a day at work so a little fishing expidition didn't change anything, except make me feel 100% better for being out doors and being skunked at fishing by a 4 year old. I guess every once in awhile I have to have a little pity party as like the rest of you I get so frustrated with everything and life seems so unfair. But then again who said it wassuppose to be fair. I try to remember things that don't kill you only make you stronger, and It is always possible to be thankful for what is given rather than to complain about what is not given. One or the other becomes a habit of life.
