Doctor stuff

I accidentally deleted yesterday's post. My MRI was clear. The PET Scan showed cancer in lymph nodes everywhere but my spleen. It is time for chemotherapy. So I have a port implanted tomorrow. The Ophtholmologist today said I have an artery blocked and I may gain vision around the eye but not in the center. It should have been treated in the first 5 days, duh! He suggests a powerful steroid given IV and a lumbar tap to see what's floating around in the spinal fluid. Thinks the clot in the eye is a clump of cancer cells. Worried about it doing the same to the right eye but chemo should preclude that. Later today is an appointment to schedule a biopsy.
