coast of Maine | Had two times in the last 10 when the doctors assumed I had cancer.The first was a pulmonary embolism which where it was was told that it should/could be cancer.After tests was summoned to the oncologist office.i was setting there with the boss.Told her no matter what I would calculate the gains/loss from my trucking biz an if no big gains I would get rid of 12 employees in that part of our business to ease her burden (I did it)if I was frigged.I perhaps the happiest man when we left as the doc said no on the cancer.fast forward 3 years and a pain in my chest.The numerous tests showed an issue with that spot and my kidneys.Doc said this appears to be stage 4 cancer.More tests .5 weeks dozen tests scans etc Friday get a report yes cancer .Doc was away til Tues.I went thru about every thought .Had potential buyers lined up ,kept this diagnosis a secret from all but the boss.Tues doc calls said was a chemical they gave me that was supposed to confirm cancer but it meant none in my kidneys.Well then we need more scans.I said ASAP as I am not putting millions in the ground if I am frigged.2 weeks later ,entire body scan with some weird drinks before,NO cancer evident.Later is was determined(by a dentist appointment) that my swollen severely lymph system was... an infected tooth.I had every thought over near 2 months.Been there and I understand.Lucky as heck.I hope you are as well. | |
