MLH1, MSH2 & MSH6 test

I had some genetic testing done and the rusults were negative for any gene mutations.  What a releif to know that I did not pass this on to Carter. 

On Monday I go for a PET scan to see what the unknow mass is.  More to follow.

CT update #2

The CT images have been uploaded to M.D. Anderson's database so Dr. Feig can review them.  He is on vacation today and tomorrow but is supposed to review the images and give me a call.  He has been extremely responsive in the past so I expect to hear from him later today or tomorrow regarding his findings.  More to follow after I hear from Dr. Feig but I suspect they will want me to come visit and do some type of procedure to find out what the mass is.

CT follow up with Dr. Smith

I met with Dr. Smith here in KC to review the CT results.  He let me know there is a new mass (3.4cm X 4.8cm) in the lower abdominal retropertioneum on the right side.  There are not sure what it is so I have sent the CT and the report to Dr. Feig at M.D. Anderson in Houston.  Dr. Feig will review the images and let me know how he wishes to proceed.  At this time it's too early to say what it is.  I will post again when I have more information.

CT today

I had a CT today to investigate some pain I have in the right side of my groin.  My gastroenterologist wants to see me tomorrow morning at 9:15am to review the scan.  I'm not sure what is causing the pain but am curious to see what he has to say.  More to follow.
