Gave several vials of blood at 9 this morning. Didn't want to keep paying for parking so left, looking for a place for breakfast. The VSB was full so I went to Kits Coffee Co on 4th for tea and a cinnamon bun.
My oncologist was away so I saw another one. The resident who saw me first scared me. He was reading the CT Scan results and holding it for me to see. It looked like I had lung cancer, but of course didn't. It did show something on the pelvis/thigh that they were concerned about and recommended an X-ray. There is also a blood clot on the Port-a-Cath that has to be looked at. The resident wrote up an order for an X-ray today but the doctor said to wait a day.
Met Pru on Commercial Drive for lunch and did some shopping at Oakridge.
The doctor called at 4:30 to say the radiologist took another look at Monday's CT Scan and did not see a problem with the thigh. CT trumps X-ray so I don't need any more tests. VGH then called with an appointment to see someone about the clot tomorrow morning.
Tense day!
