Just got off the phone with the doc regarding results of my physical last week. Seems all the blood tests came back good, PSA, general test for cancer (some sort of onco test) white, red blood counts, etc.

But, from the chest x-ray seems there's a bit of "fibrosis" on the apex of my left lung, the doc things possibly from the radiation, would be the area behind the collarbone. Wants to do a side view x-ray to check. Since I've been radiated on both sides down to the collarbone, could be a possiblilty. Doc want's to check it out well, but not in a panic mode yet.

Of course I'm doing the big freak out nervous deal, even though the PET CT from July 15 was all clear.

Heading back to the doc's tomorrow for re-x ray.

Somebody tell me I'm getting nervous for no big deal please.

ARGGHH
