Turns out, from the CT scan, I have atelectasis in my right lung. Not a huge amount, but enough to be of some concern. He will be doing another CT scan in about 2 months to make sure the area is not increasing any.
I also have dry pleurisy (I didn't even know there WAS a dry form), which explains chest pains and such. He ran another ESR. I go back in two weeks.
The med manager decided to change my medicine to 10 mg two times a day instead of once. Maybe this would help me in the evenings with my depression.

I hope that helps.
I'm going to have to look up the first time. My dear, at least I'm learning a lot about medical terms from you :s
I actually came by to tell you I just deleted my hotmail account (siedwebsite). I haven't got a new one yet. Can't think of a good name. Or maybe I'll go back to the address I started with. Gee, my life is hard.
Oh, yeah.. nearly forgot. Remember my old site about self-injury & eating disorders? Well.. kinda got it going again, except that this time I'm focusing just on SI.. will probably make a separate site for EDs later. Anyway, I'm hoping it's cool if I continue using all the poems you sent me. You also put your name down for a support list, and I thought I'd see if you've changed your mind about that. I know you have a lot to deal with in your own life, so I will remove your name if that's what's best. On the other hand, if you are fine and still want to be on the list, I'm gonna need to make sure I have your current details... whew. long explanation. it's the rain, it always gives me extra energy. i love rain so much ^_^
