It's me again,had pet and ct results wanted to do a biopsy however when I got to the hospital and waited for hrs. I was told it had to be post-poned because they had no clear view what to biopsy. since I had the upper right lobectomy in 2-07 there was no lung in the area that lit up.It was more by the pluerial lining and might be scar tissue,they said the lit areas were pin point sized and not just 1. I have had severe pain in these areas,upper back shoulder blade area going under my arm pit thru the breast to my chest bone.I hope the scar tissue(if thats what it is) is causing this pain.I have suffered with this so long nothing helps anymore and I take very potent meds.I am waiting to hear when I go to have a pet/ct scan,they want to see if there is anything to biopsy.I have really fallen into a bad depression over this and the pain makes it worse.my primary doc wants me to go to the er for pain control but its not worth it because they treat you like a druggie! Any sugesstions? I think I should get a 2nd opinion,live in Dayton,Oh. any one know some good onocologists? Thanks so much to all of you.
