TGIF **** Already friday, date night, and I can't wait, need to relax, soo many appointments coming up, and it drives me crazy, but need to be done.Ok, yesterday, Ottawa, took several breathing tests with a technicien, then saw the doctor. Some of you might remember a few weeks ago, I went to do bloodwork and bring the tangeable results from the hospital (CT Scan disk) & other results on paper (4 x-rays reports) (breathing tests) all done since november of last year, when I was first put on sick leave from work, well the doctor didn't find my file. grrr............ But at least he had the blood work done from the month before, and of course the results of the breathing tests done the same day, yesterday. So he then asked me what the scan had reveilled, so I told him that there was a nodule on my right lung, and that both my lower lobes were always congested, which showed COPD, emphysema. So he told me that he wanted me to get another TC Scan, so his office will call for that. Also re-ordered all of the test and scan from my local hospital to be sent to his office in the meantime. So that's it for now. Oh yea, I asked him for the biopsy, soo the next time I see him, he will have seen if the nodule grew, and will probably proceed to the biopsy. I told him that I wanted the best possible care, which is why I was there cause i had heard he was the best in his field. I will definately asked for the scope, not the needle one.Need to rest now, will come back this afternoon and check up on you guys, and visit all of you who gave me such support in the past few days re: your journal.Thank youMck
