Continued Good News

I received my copies of the ultra-sound and radiology reports Wed. when I was at treatment. As the Dr. had said in his always brief remarks, there are no new spots on the liver and nothing has grown. I was a little surprised at the ultra-sound report as it stated there were multiple nonobstructing calculi (stones). I guess they are too small to be seen on a cat scan?? Let me give some examples from this report to show how difficult it is to interpret these reports. For example, there is no evidence of hydronephrosis. Also, there is normal renal cortical echogenicity bilaterally. I'm sure this is part of our everyday conversation??? I did finally go to my family Dr. about my sinus condition and got some medicine for it and I'm happy to say it is working great. Can finally sleep. So, we're on for 12 more weeks of treatment. The clinic is getting to be like a home away from home. One year since we started all of this. I guess I'm aive today because of that years worth of visits. Oh, I forgot, we're not going to do anything about the kidney stone at this time since it is in a position to not cause major problems. I take 2 or 3 pain pills every day and sometimes forget I have it, unless I forget to take a pill. Before I bore you, I guess that's about the latest on this continuous journey. Good health to all of you.
