Some good news from the VA Hospital today!

[Willy]

Got some good news my blood vessels look great in my neck and they said it was good I quit smoking while they were still good. So I guess them thinking I was going to have a stroke they were wrong about that. More good news I am not diabetic and the blood sugar level test came out normal. My chest X-Ray was normal looking to the person who took it but she said it still needs to be read so I take that as a good test at this point. Waiting on my colesteral test but not worried about it. Still waiting to see the cancer doctor on the 22nd for more information but they wanted those tests done first for some reason. So I feel good about today and tommorow is just another day not to worry about yet. Now I can get some cabin work done in the next few days, probley do me some good too! Mark

Willy I think from what I have heard and read that the battery of test is to establish a baseline. Then any elevation or decrease from that standard wiill dictate the treatment options.  Have you started yet?  I thought you said the 14th.  Snow gone?

That may be what there doing? The 14th was the test day and the 22nd is the knife day for biopsies I think and then another 5-7 days for those resaults to be tested and they figure how to treat it?? They are not telling me much and that may be cause I said it would be better to lie to me right now since I could do nothing about it. Snow is 99% gone at my home but not sure at the cabin site yet. I will be taking the tractor up in a couple days to prepaire the building side and cut a circle drive way into the site. If the ground is not froozen I will set the peir posts right after that and start building it. I need something to get my mind off this weird crap going on. Nothing better than hard work to take care of that! Mark

I hope all goes well, Mark.

I have had a heathy 56 years and concider myself lucky in that respect. So If I have to stumble a little for a while it will be OK. I think it is going to be allright just a hassle to deal with right now. Mark
