Sharon's MRI results

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone,

Thank you for your continued prayers on my behalf! The MRI was

yesterday, they did part of it with dye due to my breast cancer

history. Then I went on to my PT appt. re: the possibility of

lymphedema in my arm where I had lymph nodes removed. I had felt a

little swelling under my arm (possibly due to what I am now fighting)

I was thankful to learn that I do not have the dreaded lymphedema,

but my PT will teach me some exercises to keep the lymph flowing.

I tried to concentrate on other things the rest of the day, but it

was hard not to think of the MRI and what it would show. I still

felt in my heart that it was not cancer, for my Mayo Doctor said my

prognosis was 96% esp. since I did the mastectomy. Plus, just too

many symptoms that are auto-immune related but not disease specific.

Well..I got the call from my Doctor's nurse just awhile ago...I

figured it couldn't be bad news with her calling. She said the MRI

was perfectly normal!! She also said my Doc is working on a

referral to MAYO, and that I should pursue getting my implants out.

She wanted me to call the PS that put them in. Hmmm, that should be

interesting. Anyway, I am relieved it is not something else,

knowing it is the implants gives me control again because I can do

something for myself that should improve my health significantly.

So, now I have lots of ?'s...

My plan is to call Dr. Feng's manager, as suggested. I also

will call Dr. Huang in Denver. If any of you have personal

experience with her, let me know. The other possibility is having

it done in Minneapolis or Rochester(Mayo)...those would be more

likely to be covered by insurance. Interestingly, I heard from the

MRI tech. that he used to work in a hospital in Minneapolis where

they routinely do breast MRI's to detect leakage. He said that they

had at least one a day! Have any of you had that done? Not that I

need proof, but am wondering if a leak is causing the recent

severity of my symptoms. One of you mentioned, or maybe I read it

in someone's story, that they had antibiotics prescribed to deal

with saline contaminant, etc. One breast does appear a bit smaller,

not very noticeable though. Meanwhile, I took garlic capsules this

morning and plan on getting some real garlic, too as Rogene

suggests. My concern with MAYO, as wonderful a clinic as it is, it

is also focused on traditional, conventional medicine. Maybe there

is a PS associated with them that does En Bloc removal. I would

think there would need to be some excellent PS's associated with

Mayo just because of their reputation, but who knows? Getting one

who is very sympathetic to the cause is important to me, also one

that would focus on healing from the toxicity - or pointing me in

the right direction anyway. I am so glad my Doc believes me, guess

my letter to her, along with a copy of a few testimonies helped to

convince her as well. I have this site to thank for that!!!

Anyway, I also plan on contacting a Women's Breast clinic in

Minneapolis, they are the ones with the MRI detecting leaks. Sigh,

I think this will be common practice everywhere soon. There will

more than likely be a " BIG BUST " on ALL implants soon, know what I

mean? Meanwhile there exists sites like this for support &

information and a few sympathetic docs out there - Praise God!

Oh, Kathy, I think it was you that mentioned RH-10 from Garden of

Life....not sure if I read about that here yet, what is it and where

can you get it?

Thanks again all. Blessings,

Sharon
