Catchup

Since procedure on 6-30 I have heard from doctor. No cancer cells in lung lavage fluid. Still growing cultures...fungus or bacteria...will be ready about 8 weeks. Now on Symbicort 2 puffs-twice daily. No side effects.

Saw other doctor for osteoporosis...can now begin taking calcium and Vit. D as required. No blood test today...will repeat calcium in three months. Weight 132.5 at doctor's office. Blood pressure 155/80. Pounding heart beats nothing serious...may be intensified by Symbicort. Will monitor how that goes. Doctor can do Holter monitor for 24 hours if we decide still a problem or getting worse. Sounds good to me...so tired of seeing doctors. I don't know how cancer and seriously ill people do it...Thank God for my good health.

Saw PT today about neck. Treatments (heat and mustle stimulator and ultrasound) followed by gentle stretching (OUCH!). Will continue to gently do stretches for upper trapezius and levator scapula.
