Last month, I chose to change lung doctors. I asked my kidney doctor if he knew anyone. He gave me three names, then I called my doctor to ask her for a referral for the new doctor. I got it and called to make an appointment. My new lung doctor is half Hungarian. I am one quarter Hungarian, that was neat for me. I will see him again before school starts. Before then, I will be getting my fourth ultrasound of my right leg in the past year. In early August, I will have a lung function test.
He did show me on the computer, a comparison of my PET/CT scans from last August to the one I had at the beginning of March. He said there was a mass in August and now it is gone. He also said that Sarcoid is an inflammation of the lymph nodes.
Yesterday morning, I wore my tennis shoes for a few hours. That was great. I have to build up time in my tennis shoes. The swelling in my right leg is going down! By end of summer, I should be back at Curves working out. My other goal is to be able to wear my slip-ons by the middle of next month.
The OT is working on both of my wrists and my lower arms are very tight. I have a few exercises to do through out the day. I am looking for a brace to wear, which will also help.
