Back home a couple of hours ago.
Good news is I do not have lung cancer. Bad news is I do have other problems,and will list them below.
#1 Had water in my lungs again,and had it drained again. Got a quart and a half this time. The doc is sending it off to be analyzed,but what was drained before had no cancer cells,so there is no reason to believe this might.
#2 I need to find out WHY my lungs keep filling with fluid,and where the fluid is coming from,starting from the fluid in my stomach. Which means I need to see a Gastroenterologist to have my stomach drained,the fluid analyzed,and what is causing it. I will get an appointment with one tomorrow.
#3: Abdomen and legs are still swollen from fluid. Have an appointment with my pulmo surgeon on Tuesday,and my heart surgeon next Wednesday
#4 I need to find a lymph gland specialist because the lymph glands in my groin are swollen,and since I am an Agent Orange Veteran and lymph glands are a favorite place for cancer to hide and grow I need to get this diagnosed pretty quickly. I will see about getting an appointment with a local clinic that specializes in this tomorrow.
#4 Until I take the three steps above this problem is only likely to get worse or cause other things to go bad. I can't accept half-measures and "probably good enough" answers. I need to take them on one by one to treat them and eliminate them as problems.
IF I find out there are problems and what they are as well as what to do about them,I will post the answers as I discover them,as well as any treatments I get and how effective it is.
There is a very good possibility those of you reading this have already read and heard more about this than you want to know,so I won't be doing updates on this subject unless there is a demand to hear them.
