My 5/19 CT scan reports are back and as far as we can tell, there is no evidence of disease!!!! YAY!!!! The report indicates there is a "small, sub-centimeter hypodensity" in the "central aspect of the liver near the portal vein" which is "somewhat less prominent." As far as I can determine, this means there is an extremely small spot in my liver that appeared on the last scans, has shrunk a bit, and caused no alarm in December so should cause no alarm this time. I'll keep you posted should Dr. Keohan disagree with my assessment.
I had a physical therapy evaulation last night before they apply for 16 more visits. I reached most of my short-term goals but not all of them. It seems I need to work a bit harder to get more bend in my ankle, especially to help me go down stairs more normally. Otherwise, my progress continues and I even did some weeding over the weekend. I know, it's not the most exciting thing to report, but when you think about how you have to move your feet and bend when you're weeding in and around plants, trees and ponds, it's somewhat impressive (pausing to pat myself lightly on the back). I have a feeling my foot and ankle (such as it is) will be tender tomorrow since I've been working that joint harder than usual today.
Thanks for continuing to keep track of my progress and keep your fingers crossed for many more years of clear scans. The next one will be in August.
