Big Browns Report post Posted June 9, 2016 Still no diagnosis. Dr ordered CT to see in the bone. Go back to specialist in 3 weeks. Holy Cow, 3 weeks!!!!!!!!!!! Why so long? Did you tell him you may die of a heart attack due to your blood pressure being too high in that amount of time! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Heat Report post Posted June 9, 2016 No kidding. Probably because as a society we eat garbage, are surrounded by toxins everywhere and generally live longer and have better access to health care now than ever before so everybody is seeing Doctors all the time.

Eagle mountain ranch Report post Posted June 9, 2016 These doctors are a joke nowadays,hang in there bro they have been messing around with my diagnosis for over a year now.Just now going for a C.T. Wed. , I'm convinced they are just milking my private health care insurance. Meanwhile I'm sure all the welfare people are being well taken care of ... Good luck and Godbless 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flatlander Report post Posted June 10, 2016 Well if they want to look into the bone does that mean they did not find a mass in the soft tissue via the MRI? That seems like good news. Looking for that silver lining my friend. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Heat Report post Posted June 10, 2016 No there is definitely a mass somewhere above the eye. I can easily see it on the MRI, however it is not involving the eye or its components other than maybe the muscles above. That area is very tight and any change of pressure in that area can cause a bulge. The Dr is suspicious about the location. It either involves the bone or is in the bone off to the side of the frontal sinus on the right side. Thanks for the positive vibes nonetheless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mattys281 Report post Posted June 10, 2016 I'm sure youre stressing over it and it seems like a hassle, but stuff like this has to make you pause and thank God we live in the time we do where they know so much and they have as many different testing options now. 50 years ago, you're doc would've looked at it, scratched his head & said, "hellif I know what it is, let's cut it open 'en have a look..." Hang in there bud, you'll be fine. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Edge Report post Posted June 17, 2016 Heat, sorry I missed this thread somehow, you're one of the good guys on this board. I'll send prayers right away. Can totally relate to your situation. Went to the doc for some respiratory issues recently and all I heard was cancer. It's like getting hit by a hammer. Stay positive, friend and keep the faith. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
