Well, MrsMini is.
They found a spot on her liver and need to check it out.
Wish us luck!

Hope it's nothing but a smudge on the X-ray.

MiniSimp · « **Reply #3 on:** Jul 30, 2008, 08:17:01 PM »

Yeah, hopefully.

We'll update here when we find out more: http://www.simpson-photography.com/CristieBlog.html

The thing that sucks is...unless you get a friendly tech who will fill you in, it's always a few days before the doctor will tell you.

Problem with that is that the tech is not trained to read MRI's (or any other x-ray). Some that are experienced can look at them and say they see something that looks odd, but they are not allowed (legally) to suggest a diagnosis.

I know, but at least mine told me my neck wasn't broken.

jimbo74 · « **Reply #14 on:** Jul 31, 2008, 04:27:08 PM »

any updates?

MiniSimp · « **Reply #15 on:** Jul 31, 2008, 09:07:00 PM »

Like everyone above said, wont get the results back for a couple of days.

MRI went good though, even though MrsMini is freaked out by confined spaces.

I'll post up when we hear something....

Liver is pretty common to find "spots". Most are completley benign and don't mean anything. Hope your doc also ran some liver function studies to be sure everything is "working" the way it's supposed to. How did they find the "spot"? was she having some symptoms that made your doc think there was a problem with the liver, or was it an incidental finding? If it was incidental, I wouldn't worry too much until you get the results 'cause it probably doesn't mean anything significant.

Liver level have been high (not sure which ones) so they said everything is fine, after the 3rd time being told that my wife requested it to be checked out anyway, and guess what.......

Just saw this man. Wishing you both the best.

MiniSimp · « **Reply #21 on:** Aug 06, 2008, 07:17:23 AM »

Good news! Her liver is asymmetrical and that was causing what only appeared to be a "spot".

All is good!
