Hello everyone. Got the news this morning my petscan was clear. THANK GOD AND EVERYONE'S PRAYERS. I had that kyphoplasty done for the compression fractures on my spine. Turns out I have 3 compression fractures. I got home late last night from the hospital. UPon being discharged My right foot blew up. So now I had to have a doppler done on my legs. Sure enough blood
clots. I now have to go back on anti-coagulant injections for about 6 months. I had this when I had the colon cancer and complications from surgery. I was inactive for 3 months. The good news is nothing showed up about the lymph nodes. My back is a slow recovery. I am home recuperating. Thank you for all your prayers. Love all of you. And support each and every one who has to go thru this roller coaster.
Merry Christmas. Love Fran

    So happy you could get this done before the holidays and get such great results. Sigh! Maybe you can now take a deep breath and know that once your back has healed you will be back to our new normal. Thank you, God! jams

    I wasn't watching for a few days and missed your post. That is great news. Now recover from the back surgery and hopefully you will feel alot better. That certainly makes Christmas a happier time.

    Your friend, ****
