Hopefully the find a way to heal that up, Bob.  I'll be keeping you in my prayers.

I have had an MRI before, and found out I was claustrophobic.  Not a good time.

The hardest thing I find is keeping still, especially for 1.5 hours. My arms and my upper body for the most was pinned, and I  hate being restrained in any way. Sure the back and sides are wide open but they put part of the MRI right over my face.

I was holding some small ball that I can squeeze, technician would stop the procedure and get me out. I can’t tell you how many times I wanted the heck out of there. 

Thank you for your prayers; means everything to me. I too pray for nothing but good results.

Went to my Oncologist today!!

No MRI and Chest X-Ray results!! Results are on hold!! This can be due to that the results are released to the doctor 4-5 business days after test were concluded; I had this tests last Monday March 23rd!! Doctor should have results this upcoming Monday!! I’ve a follow-up at April 10th!!

Oncologist asked me if I was taking testosterone shots!! I said no…never!! So she pokes and probs me here and there!! She says my testosterone level is at 486…last blood test was at 276. She says that that can indicate that maybe the cancer came back!! But I reminded her that my PSA is at 0.06, she says cancer can return even with a low PSA!! The older men get, the lower the testosterone gets!! Maybe my cancer did come back because while my testosterone levels are high, I’ve not been able to be intimate with my wife for many years; doctor said that I should get a blue pill because I’m getting older too!! Hhhmmmmmm?!?

She also says that there’s activity in my liver!! But she believes that that’s a typo because it’s better to have activity where the hole in my head is than in my liver!!

I just want to die of old age from natural causes!!!!
