5/31-Pulmonalogist Appt.

Well Wed. I went to see Dr. Handley my new Pulmonalogist. It used to be Dr. Paladino, but he moved back to NY. He seems like a great Dr. He was brought up to speed about everything and then listened everywhere to my lungs and didn't hear anything concerning. He said it all sounded clear. He was concerned about the shading in the upper left lung( which was in fact a radiation port) and the pain I have been feeling with a deep breath and the tiredness. He didn't want to start the prednisone without first running a blood test and also check for valley fever too. So he has me taking an antibiotic called Biaxin for 2 weeks. It is used to treat just regular pneumonia. So, after 2 weeks I go back to Dr. Handley and get an X-ray and another check-up. So, if the Lord brings it to your mind to pray, please pray that this antibiotic works and I do not have to take the "Stinky Prednisone" as my wonderful friend Julie O put it in the last comment field. All this must sound all to familiar to you dear Julie!! Thanks for all the prayers!! Thanks to everyone!! I love you All!! Jesus is my healer!!
