Just got the report form the CT scan I has last month at the ER. The ultrasound that I had done on 03/10/2011 my spleen was 16.3 now on the CT scan I had done on 03/15/2011 it is now 15.6 again. But something else I learned from the report, which the ER doctor did not mention. I have a 3.1 x 2.5 cm cyst on my left ovary. Also I have mild asymmetric fullness of the left renal pelvic collecting system compared to the contralateral side without true hydronephrosis, I do not know what that means.they said that the cyst is an adnexal cyst, most likey ovarian in etiology. Have no idea what that mean either. If anyone can help me with this, I would greatly appreciate it. Please keep me in your prayers. God bless you all...
Went to my PCP today, and got more pain meds. I go to see the hemotologist on May 9th next month, my PCP said that he did not know if that would do any good. But I get to the point where it is hard for me to breathe, so I don't know if it has gotten bigger and pressing on my lungs or what. But with mediciad my PCP can only order an ultrasound every 6 months, I would have to go to the ER if I wanted to know if it has gotten bigger or not. But my PCP told me today that they might have to take it out. But I guess that I just have to wait till next month, and hope that nothing happens in the mean time. Please keep me in your prayers.. God Bless you all..
Then liver tests came back fine, so now I have to go see my Hemotologist. My GI doctor said that it could be blood clots, a blood diesase or another thing. But I can not remember the name of it. anyone got snymore advice on what I should do.
I thought it could be Hepatitis, which I mentioned in a previous post. Doesn't sound like Lupus. Just have to wait and see unfortunately. I know one thing, they have to quickly find a way to get your spleen down or take it out.
Yes, I will keep you in my prayers dear. Hang in there dear.
I went today and seen my GI Doctor. He ordered some blood work. He is testing me for auto immune dieases, hepititis A & C, and testing to make sure that my liver has no sevre damage. He also told me that my ultra sound should that I have signs of viral Hepititis. He also told me to call my hemotologist and let him know that my spleen never went back down to normal size, he also said something about Lupus. He said depending on what the blood tests say I might have to have a liver biopsy done. But the lab said that he should have the test results back on monday or tuesday. That if ther was anything on the tests that warrented to be taken care of asap then he would call me other than that I would have to wait till my appoinment on April 8th. So got some kinda good news that maybe he might be able to do something. And some bad news that I could have something life threating. Now I am more scared then ever, what the tests are going to cpme back and say. I can't wait another 2 weeks to see what they say. But I have to. Thanks for all the advice and the added support. May god bless you all, and please keep me in your prayers.
Yes, please update after your GI consult or before.
All the best.
