Cancer, Part VI: Major Update

First off, let me say that I am now down to 200 lbs. That makes 96 lbs lost so far. I feel great! Other than still having few clothes that fit.

In other news, I had a doctor's appointment today with my E, N & T doctor to go over the results of the Contrast CT that I had last Thursday. He examined me, looked over everything from my ears to my throat. Then gave me copies of the reports from the radiologist.

Nothing.

The pictures indicated there were no abnormalities visible that were of concern. Therefore, as Dr. S put it, "no weird surgeries for you!" LOLz!

Mother is taking me out to dinner tonight to celebrate. I go back in three months to see the doctors for the next round of checkups. It is kind of annoying, though, since my insurance changed and now my co-pays are higher. Thankfully, I won't have to go as often now that everything is under control. I expect the phone to start ringing off the hook any second now, since mother is probably spreading the news far and wide.

So, this may be the last of the cancer postings. That is unless someone has a question or wants more details about something that I would be willing to provide.

This, though, won't be my last posting in the blog. I just have to think of more things to write about...

Congratulations! This is wonderful news. :-)

I'm sure you'll continue to have things to blog about. Just remember to keep plucking threads of your life from the tapestry and holding them up for observation. Don't let it all blur into one finished mass. ;-)

P.S. I would be interested in your blogging in detail about where your interest in Japan came from and why it continues to interest you.
