CT Results

The results are in...NEED MORE TESTING!!

I really hate to hear that but it is what it is. The CT Scan showed that I have enlarged lymphnodes. It aslo showed a collapsed blood vessel in my right armpit area. My doctor says I could be one of those people that just have larger lymphnodes but she wants to be certain so she has ordered a PET Scan. She is forwarding the CT Scan to a vascular doctor to look at the collapsed blood vessel. She doesn't seem to concerned but we would rather be safe than sorry. The PET Scan does such a better job picking up Lymphoma than a CT Scan does, so I'm all for it.

To be honest, I feel okay about this. At first to hear that more testing had to be done had me a little discouraged but I'm trying to be more positive. I'm a bigger girl, so why not have bigger lymphnodes. Hey, I have to be positive or I would drive myself absolutely crazy. Especially with the girls not home, I have way to much time to think about it.

My parents and the girls went to Seattle this weekend for one of my lifelong friends wedding. I wish I could have been there. I will share pictures once my mom sends them to me. Congratulations, Krissy and Jim!!!
