Title: all clear
Post by michael on May 23rd, 2007, 1:28pm
A month ago I was sat in my doctors discussing the suggestions that the neuro had made for when my next cluster arrives next year. My doctor noticed I was coughing and said I should have a chest x-ray.

I then got a call to say something wasn't clear on the x-ray and I should have a scan to rule out a tumour.

Great, I thought. I've just come through an 8 week cycle,
gave up smoking 9 weeks ago, and now I might have a tumour.

Anyway, I went for the scan and have just got the results today giving me the all clear - what a fantastic feeling after a month of worry.

YAY! What a great incentive to stay off the cigs, too!
Keep up the good work. It gets easier.

I had a cardiologist tell me one time that sometimes when a patient coughs that it is not always respiratory. That sometimes one coughs to stimulate the vagus nerve to help correct a cardiac disrythymia. I dont know your age or history but sometimes a cough is a cough. But to quote George Carlin "somtimes a cigar is just a cigar, and sometime it is just well we will leave it at that."
