computed tomography scan


Did my annual lung cancer screening chest scan this morning at Big Bend Regional Medical Center.  Was in and out in exactly 14 minutes.  Won't know the results until next week.  Wasn't able to get the procedure last year due to Covid.  Lucky to get in this year with hospitalizations on the rise again.  A lot of people don't realize there is a trickle down effect of the pandemic.  Covid might not get you...but you might not be able to get tests or treatment for other conditions.  90,96,68,0,B

Prayers that the results are negative my friend.

That's exactly what happened to my cousin's husband. He had his yearly cardiology appt via ZOOM, then dropped dead a few months later. To this day my cousin believes if he'd been able to have an in-person exam, they may have caught the problem. Yet she still refuses the vax.
