    Thank you all!
    Well as you all tried to reassure me, NED! Thank God! There are some weird things tho, I had been concerned about this crazy cough and the report shows I have some significant swelling in my lungs. Dr is pretty certain I have some sort of infection even a slight pneumonia. Starting antibiotics and then a chest xray in a month. Also, and this is really unexpected, on the report listed under "working diagnosis" it says endometrial cancer.....what the heck is that all about? The scan was from eyes to thighs so it did cover that area but shouldn't the report say more than that if there is cancer present anywhere else? Dr thinks it's a typo done in transcribing, maybe the transcriber heard endometrial instead of laryngeal? I guess it's possible.....right? He has a call into the radiologist for confirmation and as much as I'm leaning towards this being a typo I don't think I can fully relax until I hear the word. If it's a typo I bet someone is in trouble! If it's not a typo someone else is in trouble for not doing better at explaining. I'll keep you posted. Thank you all so much!

    I think this is some kind of a screw up...typo, misspelling....
    something that it's too bad you'll be waiting the weekend to hear about....that's the part that REALLY stinks.

    Other than that....congrats kid...NED FOR YOU!!! :)

    Hi Billie

    Great news on the NED, and yes they make mistakes all the time on the reports, if the doctor is not worried about it that’s good.

    Have a great week-end

    congrats!
    that's more than a typo, that's a major screwup. IF it was true, it would light up in the pictures, not just be one word in some messed-up report. and as far as I know, the docs get the pics.
    let's just go with NED instead. ;-)

    Wish you hadn't gotten hit with what sounds like a typo, though.

    No word
    Still no word on what is hopefully a typo. What should be a great weekend is a tiny bit clouded. If it's all a screw up I'll be so happy but boy are they going to hear it from me!

    Congrats...
    I'd think definitely some screw up on terminology...like mentioned, I'd presume something as that would light up and you'd be having the MD calling you.

    Try to enjoy the week-end, and then give them hell next week.

    Best,
    John
