If he's wrong WHO has to get another port put in ..... him ?????
Ok now I'm getting gnarly WHEN a doctor says to me "I wouldn't worry about .... OR IF it were me ..... "
I say It is NOT you AND if it were YOU ..... I wouldn't worry either !!!!! ... and Yes in fact I have said exactly that,
the second time around after my lung met was missed on a CT
CT radiation : yes it is a real risk BUTT again the newer CTs are way lower exposure than when all the "warnings" first started circulating back in my day (10 years ago )
I once told my Onc ( when he balked at keeping 3 month scans versus 6 month scans for a year )
" I would rather die from too much radiation than another missed cancer met because we didn't do the scan.
My life, so it is my choice. "
beach sunrise wrote:2nd look of cap ct scan by hosp where I had surgery at is in. No evidence of metastatic disease. Everything was "normal" except the finding with ab/pelvic vessels it is worded "No significant abnormality." On after surgery report back end of Jan it was noted that I was high risk of venous thromboembolus. Is this connected? I will research but want you guys take on it also pretty please.
