I’ve had a few scares since I was officially done with Hodgkins. Most of them really goofy ones that I made up in my head because well…It has been a scary experience.
Two weeks ago I had some soreness in my neck. Kinda like I had slept on it wrong, but it was more internal…felt like someone punched me in the neck. I don’t have any Dr’s in LA, so I went to a clinic hoping to get some antibiotics or something if it was an infection. They told me to talk to my Oncologist.
My Oncologist is in Philly, I see them July 27th. I called them, they suggested I see an oncologist out here immediately. Let the freak out begin.
Alyssa helped out quite a bit on chilling me out and focusing me on finding a new Dr. She’s been really good to me over the past year. I’m blessed to have solid people in my life.
Let’s not forget I was planning a move, trying to get my textPlus work done, and handle some Qwotebook stuff on the weekends. Freakouts of this type don’t help.
I saw the new oncologist and we talked a lot. I’m not going to share the contents of that discussion. Having said that, bloodwork was done last week and a new PET scan was ordered for tomorrow.
I’m calling this a “checkup”, but I’m fearful it could be something else.
There’s your update. Here I go again…
