So, I realized that I should probably post some sort of a report, for those of you who are signing in and saying “What’s wrong with Dianne?”.
Last week, Mom went to the doctor. There was a lump on her throat (a swollen Lymph node) and she was having pain in the left side of her body. The Doctor took an x-ray saw spots in her left lung and ordered a CTSCAN of her torso, and a biopsy of the lymph node.
The CTSCAN found a mass in her Left lung that is putting pressure on nerves and her ventricles in her heart, that mast is cancer. The biopsy just confirmed what the CTSCAN had found.
She visited Dr. McHale of the McHale Institute in Sioux Falls and his plan of action for her is Radiation on the mass in her lung. He also discovered a possible spot on her liver which he ordered a PETSCAN of her entire body. After Radiation of the mast in her lung they will start rounds of Chemotherapy.
So there’s the diagnosis, prognosis and plan of action… or something like that – at least we’re all on the same page now.
If you’d like to be a guest blogger on this blog and share your side of the story please let me know, I can make that happen!
All the love in the Universe, Abby Ronnebeck.
