Lung Issues - May 17th, 2024

I got the results from the blood test and, surprise, I don't have Tuberculosis.

I suppose I should be happy that everything is negative but it makes you wonder.

In the meantime, I went back to the eye doctor and everything is terrific except that my right eye protrudes slightly. So she wants me to contact my PCD about a thyroid test.

It never ends. It never does.

Lung Issues - May 6th, 2024

So I saw the infectious disease lady doctor today. They did require masks in the office interestingly enough.

She said when they looked at the biopsy they detected a class of bacteria of which tuberculosis is a member so everyone immediately freaked out.

So, they did four pathology tests and all of them were negative for TB but they didn't send a sample to microbiology to do a culture. So that's what she wants me to do.

She doesn't think I have TB but a blood test and culture will settle it once and for all. So I need to make an appointment for a blood test.

It never ends. It never does.
