Aw man, sorry to hear about the tumor but glad they found it early & the outlook sounds good. Will you need any other treatments in addition to the surgery? My daughter had thyroid cancer her freshman year in college and as I recall they gave her some kind of radioactive isotope treatment after they removed her thyroid glands to make sure all the cancer cells were eradicated. No flying or entering government buildings for about a month afterward but otherwise it worked like a charm lol. Anyway, sounds like your nasty fall had a silver lining - sometimes being a klutz can be a good thing!Members that have seen my random posts about my shoulder / clavicle dislocation injury from a shower fall just wait until you hear the follow up lol
For starters I just completed my yearly physical in January with a clean bill of health whew thank the maker!
Anyways while getting a Catscan last friday related with my shoulder injury due to my neck also being injured from the fall guess what they found!
YUP you guessed it!
A carcinoma tumor on one of my kidneys!
Had I not fallen and injured my shoulder I would’ve never known I had carcinoma in my body.
My removal surgery is imminent!
My force ghost dad must’ve forced pushed me in the shower lol
The moral of this tale you ask?
Get an MRI (with contrast?) in your yearly physical even if you have to pay out-of-pocket….well you will definitely have to pay out-of-pocket because insurance ain’t paying just for a yearly physical lol
But do it!
Remember I got a clean bill of health from my primary!
That is unless you have upcoming collectibles those always come first lol
Anyways i’ll just add what is more than likely cancer to my post covid current shoulder neck circus of tricks what is next WW3 with nukes lol
With your almost 84K posts here I'm pretty sure it's the other way around lol...
I’ve been on good drugs since the fall lol
.You say that like any of us here are getting that..?
Thank you bros and brethren alike lolSubscribing to thread.
At least this doesn't sound like the worst of the worst case scenario. Encouraging indicators that it has been discovered before symptoms - meaning it's likely to be early stage right? Heck are they even sure it's not just a benign growth?
For what it's worth your CollectorFreaks brethren are in your corner.
Dude so many of the laughs and film analyses over the years here have been legendary. All because of people like you man!
jye multitasking while reserving tickets for The Batman over the phone, lol.
Glad you caught it early, wouldn't be the same around here without your memeing
You say that like any of us here are getting that..?
Thank you for the kind words
Happy to hear your doctor caught this early and that you'll be taking the next step in getting rid of it.
If the board lost you, who would I have left to abuse?
Take care of yourself, Jye, and be well.
No headaches, just a lot of laughs!
Sorry for all the headaches I have given you all this
