I hope for you that it was a false positive as it happens at times.


Since posting this. UPMC, Pittsburgh, Oct 2011 until Jan. I averaged about 2 to 3 surgeries a week there. w Can't have jaw made as bone is deteroriating steaily that is left in jaw. Mersa is to blame. Feeding tube . Had trach for 4mos. Got it out April.

Thanks everyone. I had the chest CT last night, I see a new dr today to talk about my ear issue and possibly getting a tube placed in it. I was gonna ask him if a preliminary was in on the new CT, not sure if he will tell me. I have my phone nearby in case MD Anderson decides to call me with the news before I go there at 3pm....We shall see!
