Test Results

The CT scans that were performed last week will result in more testing today. Peter is back at the U for an ultrasound of his kidney. They noticed a change in one of them and are concerned about blood flow. It could be that the kidney is recovering from trauma, but they’re taking a closer look.

They still “remark” on a lymph node or two in the left superclavicular area behind his left collar bone. Apparently it’s unchanged, but they still remark on it because of the original involvement of these nodes. This is a little unnerving, because Peter has rested with his left arm over his head a lot and has indicated that it avoids pain. However, the last surgery was also on his left side, so that could be reason enough.

I think those scans are also sent to NY for review. I’ll update soon with the results of the ultrasound. I should know more this afternoon.

Oh, I almost forgot. Peter is doing really well. He’s making strides each day on the journey back to full health.

  2. Our fingers are crossed for good news with your follow-up tests today! Let’s hope that the “unnerving” feelings are quickly erased!!

    I bet you had a fun weekend, Peter!? It was really warm out, wasn’t it? I hope you had fun riding your bike and playing with Ellie & Kate. We won’t have too many more of these fallish days —- before you know it, you’ll be out making snowmen!!

  6. I’m so glad you’re feeling better Peter! Work has been busy and as a result a lot of my clients have seen your Charlie Brown drawing. They always want to know who did it and remark on how great it is. I’m looking forward to seeing all your photos from your NY journey. It’s always good to see your smile. I’m praying for good test results! Love, Jackie
