Well, Bone Scan and CT Scan is done..but doc called this morning and saw something he wasn't expecting. He asked if I had ever had trauma to my lower back (which I have..remember that snowboarding incident with the tree? fractured pelvis and all). Anyway, he wants to be sure that the abnormalities on my Bone Scan are specifically from trauma so he's ordering an MRI. Hopefully that will indicate trauma or else I will have to have a biopsy..and I'm thinkin a biopsy of the bones CAN NOT be a good feeling thing. Ugh!
On a lighter note...I think this is one of the funniest Halloween costumes ever!
So totally agreed about the Holloween Costume....how did anyone ever think of that one!!!
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about the MRI but feel sure all will turn out to be "trauma" related. Gosh I'm so ready for you to get on with this treatment stuff!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love ya so much!!
Hi Laura,U agree with your Mom. The doc just has to be l00% sure.
ReplyDeleteHang in there!

Hi Laura (Princess)
ReplyDeleteIt's always something isn't it. It's going to be OK I just know it. The halloween costume is clever. Let us know what the doc says. I agree with your mom - we will be so glad when you can get on with your treatment and get it over with.
Love Ya, Aunt Sher

ReplyDeleteLaura-
ReplyDeleteI will keep my fingers crossed for good news. We are all pulling for you here in ops...(remember us?)
I walked in a Breast Cancer walk last Saturday, and I just wanted you to know I walked in your honor and my sisters. Hopefully in a few years this will be a thing of the past.

When it rains it pours...but there is a rainbow at the end. Believe me it's there...
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like you have a very detailed doctor. I would want everything available to me to do
the best for you. And I know you
feel the same. BUT, it's such an aggrivation. You have had enough lately.
Your made of tough stuff and you will come through with flying colors. I know, because I'm your aunt and I love you...
Much love, Aunt Carol
Yeah, your doc is just being thorough, which is a good thing. I bet they just don't see many patients with old snowboarding injuries!
ReplyDeleteAny thoughts about bringing in an orthopedist to help examine the MRI? Someone who WOULD be familiar with what that sort of old trauma should look like? It's just a thought in case there's any ambiguity.
Keep hangin' in there.
Lots of love, Susie
