Smile Pleural Effusion Results

WHEW- the fluid did not contain any cancer cells. I did have a high protein level which can be worrisome. The PE could have been caused by hyperthermia rads but we are not sure. For now, we will keep an eye on it. I will get tested again if it comes back.

Thank you all so much for your prayers. They really do make a difference.
