Jan (GGrandmaJan) is having troubles posting, but email me on the latest with her:

[br>I did the CT scan of my chest yesterday. And yes, I remembered to ask for the CD.

She said if I could wait until tomorrow (today) I could have the report with it.

So of course, I ran down this morning and picked them both up. Remember I told you what the good Dr had said to what the options were?????

[br> [br>1. If the lesion had decreased we would continue on the antibotics.[br>2. If it all stayed the same we would have a 50-50 decision to make on whether to do the open Lung bio. [br>3. If the lesion had increased--no decision we would do the open bio. [br> [br>Well, can you believe it there should have been a Fifth option.

[br> [br> The stupid stuff has decreased a little---- BUT---it has now moved to the Right lung!!![br> [br>Well, the report said the lymph nodes on the Rt lung have enlarged and there are new spots in the Rt hiliar (part of the lung) Now I have to wait until Fri when I have the appt with him.

At least, this time I WILL NOT be blind-sided

as I could make out enough words to understand the report. [br> [br>Always some dang thing to worry about, Right? What is really---really weird is I do not feel sick or any different than I did 5 months ago. Just still really tired and have to take a nap each afternoon. UGH. [br> [br>I am desperately trying to get Tanna's (granddaughter's) quilt on the frame before I have to have any more procedures. I know I wouldn't be able to move my arms to pin it on my frame IF I do have to have surgery. [br> [br>I do feel so much better knowing this information before I go up to see the good Dr. At least, I have a few days to wrap my head around it. [br> [br>You can post for me on the boards and tell them my lastest if you want. It really is no big deal to me yet until I talk to the Dr. [br> [br>So, we will all board Pinkie on Friday and accompany Jan...In the meantime, sending tons of good wishes and prayers for a simple and successful resolution...Very disconcerting and frustrating at the least!!

Blessings Jan!!

Thanks Michelle,
Hope this post goes thru but I doubt. it. Good luck to you tomorrow. Yes, I get to see Dr. Dreamy but sure wish it wasn't so nerve-wracking.

Thanks so much Rachael for posting for me.

You are the bestest friend. I hope this will post. Sometimes it will but most times not.

I have done everything the support people told me too. It seems to work sometimes. Weird as I don't have a reply button showing just a "creative" button.
