Spot on lung

Went for physical today.

Dr. says I have a 7mm. spot on my left central lung lobe.

Says it's probably calcium or could be cancer.

Ordering a MRI.

Seems to me he thinks it the big "C" even though he didn't say so.

Why else a MRI?

Anyone with experience here?

Don't I feel like a party!

Bill

No experience with that, Bill...but I'll keep you in my prayers. When is your MRI?

Waiting for insurance to approve. Should be within a week or so I guess.

Also, Dr. thinks I may have a degenerative spinal condition.

Only getting a catscan for that

Wonder if I should buy a lotto ticket tonight?

God does have a sense of humor.

Easy does it.

Similar word on my wife's last mammogram. Turned out to be calcium.

Hang in there, Bill...

Worry won't do you any good. If you're going to worry, the spinal condition would warrant most of that energy. I have a friend with degenerative discs and basicly, you can expect to become a non famous version of Rush Limbaugh. The surgeries for that condition may or may not help but they will definately be very painful so you can expect to be on a serious pain killing regiment. The surgeries have an added benefit of every time they perform one, you might become parapalegic.

Comforting words then Jmixer...

Every Body is different, but let the diagnosis do its thing, and work from there.
