Parathyroid Surgery and now....
Came through my parathyroidectomy well and the tumor was benign. I am almost fully recovered with just a little difficulty swallowing and still quite hoarse but this will go away within a month. I had to have a complete physical before surgery including a chest x-ray and low and behold the x-ray showed some findings in my lung and the doctor now wants me to have a CT scan...Yikes! Didn't expect that. My doctor is comparing the film to previous ones and says they tend to over analyze these films especially in former cancer patients. I would rather they over analyze then disregard so we can be on top of things quicker. Please say prayers and let's hope it isn't something serious. Thanks for the support.
