Got to see all my inards on the CD the MRI folks gave me. Really neat. Last night they called to tell me they had sent the info to my Doc. Today she called to say she got them and to head for Emergency at Moncton City Hospital. Ask for Dr. Charest. Woohoo! I asked when. She said right away.

Carolyn's Dad Yogie drove me over. Got wheeled in and Yogie and I waited for Dr. Charest. I am finally being scheduled for this disc operation! Sweet Relief!

Dr. Charest dropped in and we talked for a sec. I gave him my CD and he left for a bit. When he returned he said "Well it is not a herniated disc and he suspected as much when he had spoken to my Doctor earlier in the day". He said Bone Cancer with a tumour attached to disc T12 and 3 others. There was also a 3 cm mass on one of my lungs. The severe back pain was of course attributed to that. 

Reaction? Well I told him "That's not news you wanna hear". So we talked about getting me admitted and a biopsy scheduled. I called Carolyn (I think) and Yogie and I sat for a few more and I sent him home.
