This is when I received a phone call from my orthopedics’ physician assistant. The previous Monday, my right knee “blew” and it started to swell. Anyone who has ever battled bad knees knows that swelling can be fluid build-up and needs to be taken care of. I also was experiencing a sharp pain in my lower back. Upon hearing this, she ordered an x-ray of my spine.
She noted something odd on the x-ray but at the time dismissed it as nothing serious. Upon further reflection she reviewed the x-ray and noticed that the spot was some sort of mass in my stomach cavity. Of course, once I heard this I went to the extreme and thought of cancer.
So the next step is a CAT scan and then we go from there. Because of the Thanksgiving holiday approval from my health insurance hasn't happened yet. I have such a wonderful life with Mary and I will fight whatever I have, because I want to grow very old with her. As I get updates, I will let you all know what is happening.
