my new doctor, Dr. Khan (KHANNNN), called yesterday with the results of my
CT scan. seems my hilar whatevers are still swollen and no one seems to
know with certainty why. i am making an appointment with a pulmonary
specialist today for later this week. it is looking like i have either a)
an infection of the chronic kind or b) sarcoidosis, which is an annoying
thing that makes tissues swell for seemingly no reason.
khan tells me that i'll probably have to choose between a) waiting 3
months then having another ct scan to check the lymphs or, b) have a
biopsy of the tissue to confirm something or other. but all these doctors
have assured me i am not dying of any kind of cancer.
at this point i am hoping that they discover that this malady is the root
of all my aches, woes, wants and apprehensions. and when treated i emerge
from a sickness cocoon that i never knew was encasing me.
eff all,
