Two of my fav colognes are Jovan Sex Appeal and one called California. I recently found an unopened bottle of the California at a garage sale around the corner for 10-cents. I gave her a quarter for it:) Did you ask doc what he had on? And, uh, are you just speaking of the pulmonary thing, or the other too?

Your mention of being released from his care after another visit in 3 months, is regarding the pulmonary thing and not also the thyroid, is what I was/am wondering. I suppose they are not related of course, but the wonders of the healing capacity of the human body have often proven to be beyond my limited scope of understanding about what is possible. I was previously not aware of pulmonary problems and thought it was confined to the thyroid hyperactivity you have been experiencing.

Hyde, i personally thought i had lung cancer because i read a few words which lead me to think i had tumors /nodules..in both lungs after seeing the x-rays when i caught bacterial pneumonia in June. It was not the big C.
The bleps are resolving on their own.
As for the thyroid problem, i see the physician on Dec. 21st. He did say that a biopsy is needed & he'll go from there since there are four growths growing in this organ. So that is the next medical procedure that must be done.
To the best of our knowledge, they are not related. The growths are located in different parts of the gland. Once this issue is taken care of..I should be 99.9% well. The 1 % is for 'whatever' else is going on..in this body..lol.

I see the tracker is falling down on the job on your article too, Angela. I didn't know you had responded to 2.4 yet. But didn't I hear you say, perhaps in some post in js's article, that the biopsy had come back non-malignant/non-cancerous? And I really like the sound of the other bleps resolving on their own:) Of course, you know me and how I might characterize it as our wonderful creator guiding us through our trials so we can know that he is with us in our storms:) Wishing you the absolute best!

Hyde, Feb.21st is biopsy day for the thyroid ..my dear friend.. no worries..just a nuisance. I'm sure our new health plan will stiff us with a good co-pay.."out of pocket expense." They are from Alabama..no less..quiet a distance from here wouldn't you say..so these workers are telling me what to do..go figure,, anything to save a buck. That's
how the General Works...!!

My bad. I was putting 2 & 2 together and thinking you might have the results in by now. Plus wasn't there already a biopsy that had been done? Seems like that one was way back when I was still in the hospital but I do remember them taking a very long tome to give you the results compared to how long it took me to get the results of my bone-marrow biopsies.

And I know what you mean about the long-distance insurance thing. Out city just changed providers from one here in Texas to one in Pennsylvania. I wonder if they do that to lessen the possibility of us going into their office and clocking someone? lol:)

I wish you the best result with the Feb 21st biopsy and hope things haven't been getting worse for you day to day. Still thinking about you often and wondering how you are doing. Say hi to John but I must apologize for not remembering your other son's name. Perhaps I should try some of that Genko memory stuff, lol:)

When i hear the word Alabama..what derives in this mind..is Martin Luther King, Jr. " Injustice Anywhere is a Threat
to Justice Everywhere." Just makes me stronger in so many ways..like having a Mighty Mouth. Ready to call anyone out if I'm feeling what their saying is not .. Truth. And you know Hyde..the truth is mightier than a sword. ..

Glad things are going better. You have two things in your favor with your thyroid. One you are female and that decreases the chances of something bad. Two there are multiple nodules which also decreases the chance of something bad. I do two to three biopsies a week here at my work place.

Thanks Hiram & Wise Wizard. The Physician did say..98% certain that it is benign, though he does want to make
sure that it is. And by all means he will not remove the gland. " This organ is far to important & regulates more
than we'll ever know.."Trust Me" .." His exact words.

Who knows..maybe they will dis-appear. Labs are within normal range ..no medication required at this time.

Hyde, Joseph is his name.. He also had a thyroid nodule..but refused to see the Dr. again.

Angela-"This organ is far to important & regulates more than we'll ever know.."Trust Me" .." His exact words." Now I trust this doctor! I had issues with mine -hyper-and I would not let them kill my thyroid for any reason. Now 10 years later we can't find any reason to believe it's still there. Last year tested again it's cured. I'm thinking I thought you said it can't be cured. Then to myself--- maybe just dormant. But it's my whole personality...LOl and my sex drive..and my..you get the picture. Just be careful here and do your homework.

Truth- Wiz we will not kill it. We will give you radiation treatment I-131 after we measure your thyroid uptake. Me after research- Doc..All results show you kill it 85 percent of the time, you get it wrong 85 percent of the time. Doc give me a 50/50 chance I'll take it. Otherwise at 85 percent failure rate I'm keeping it!

Synthetic hormones- Since 1953 they have NEVER duplicated the same batch.
