Tuesdays tests

As you may remember, Tuesday, November 6th was a day I had a couple of tests scheduled. A CT Scan of my chest and an MRI of my brain. The tests were non invasive. They didn't hurt. The MRI was loud and nerve wracking but not painful. When all was complete the technician said that the doctor would have the results in 48 hours.
Yesterday afternoon the doctor called (ahead of schedule, I love that)

The MRI was normal. Yeah, I have brain and it's a good one. It's a keeper.
The CT of my lungs was not normal. Now don't freak out, it wasn't normal the last time either. The beginning of my disease cause a condition called ILD or interstatial lung disease. There is "fogging on the image" at the base of my lungs and there is a new spot that showed up as well. To the best of my knowledge, this "fogging" has also been called "ground glass". The doctor explained that it's possible it is a small infection in my lungs, but that with the number of medications I take to suppress my immune system we need to make sure that we are vigiliant to symptoms and keep a close eye on everything. At this time she will leave all medication as is. I am scheduled for a pulmunary function test next week and once the results of that are in she will make a determination if it will be necessary for me to seek the care or evaluation of a lung specialist.

That's it in a nutshell.

I bought a book recently. Actually, I bought about a dozen of them I liked it so much. Anyway it's called "What Children Know about Angels."

Here's a little snip-it:
"When angels talk to God they say "Hallelujah !" It means "awsome". (Benton-age 9).

Have a great day.
Tomorrow's Friday already.
