Hope everybody has a great weekend, the last weekend in September. Can you believe the year has gone by so fast. Well I want to explain my week to everybody, most of you will not see this till sometime later today. Monday - I almost fell in the house 7 times. I had to cancelled my follow up with appointment with Dr. Viau. About my right ankle, knee, hip and right shoulder, elbow and wrist, which I have been telling everybody about in the last few months about. Tuesday - I went to my appointment with the cancer center with Dr. Das, explained to him what was going on in the last five weeks since I see him last. He ask me to stand up and walk for him, and I stumble a little bit. Hour later I was admitted into Med Central Hospital. He order a MRI for my lower back (L-3,L5 to be look at), also was calling in Dr. Viau and Dr. Tan (neurologist to look at me). Had the MRI lower back on tuesday. He came in to see me at the hospital around 9pm and order a MRI of the brain, for Wednesday. He saw that only mild increase tumor in my lower back, but wanted Dr. Viau to verify. Wednesday - Dr. Viau early in the morning. He ordered a MRI of the Neck (C-section of the spine, MRI Middle of my back (T area of my spine) to go along with my MRI of my Brain. going be a busy day, hopefully I can lay on the table that long. Well I finish all these MRI by 2pm, alone with a Cat scan of my hip. As I was being put in my room Dr. Tan was standing by the door. He told me the Brain MRI was good, there was no sign of stroke and no Cancer in the brain. He examined me and order a Cat scan of my ankle, and knee. Well they finshed that up around 4pm. Thursday - Dr. Das wakes me up and 6am, and says everything look good execpt for one spot. Another cancer tumor has showed up at the T-8 of my spine and wanted me to start radiation treatments again. But did not explain why I am in pain, wanted Dr. Viau to sign off on the report. Dr. Viau came in around 7am, said the T-8 might be the spot that is causing me to fall, but really was not sure, the ankle, hip, knee was ok on the Cat scan. So I was sent home around 5pm, they order me a walker for me (surprise Tricare paid for the walker). Friday - Around 9:30am I almost fell in the house again. So I laid down and rested since the walker was not here yet. So at 10:30am I got up to take a shower to take Sherry out shopping, and I fell as I turn the corner of the bed, hit my hit on the corner of the bed, scrape my right arm and had some pain in my right shoulder. Call both Dr. Das and Dr. Viau and let them know this happend. My walker arrived around 2pm today, it wears me out some using it, it does have a seat on it for me to sit down if I get tired. So that where I stand as the weekend is here. Sherry and I continue to thank everybody for their prayers and thoughts. Again everybody have a wonderful weekend.
