Results from 5/14:
Stomach and lymph node biopsy's negative
Pelvic Ultrasound not showing anything
Thyroid Ultrasound shows nodule; could be a common benign one, may biopsy just to be sure but is not related to NET's in liver (Dr. Feldman's opinion)
Bone scan - Dr. Feldman says it only showed very small area's of density, report did say consistent with bone malignancy. Not sure what action we will take if any. It is still a concern to me. Dr.F said the liver is really the main concern we should focus on.
Other news:
Spoke with the NOLA team, Dr. Woltering and the surgeon Dr. Wang along with other staff yesterday. They proposed dates in June for surgery. A report is needed from them for Group Health describing the surgery. If it is deemed necessary by GH they will pay completely for the hospital staff and surgery. Either Dr. Wang or Woltering needs to send Dr. Feldman a report on my visit describing their opinion moving forward (that they want to do surgery). I'm not sure how long that will take.
I have an appointment with Dr. Feldman next week to discuss next steps.
Continuing with TQI diet. Spoke with NOLA nutritionist yesterday. May slightly alter diet.
