Pain Clinic, Gwen,

[Guest guest]

Gwen,

I think that I upset some ppl for not reading the previous posts

about the pain clinic thing, and I am sorry for that, but you were the

only one to respond to it. Well, here is what happened.

I was sent b/c of pain in my upper chest hurting right where I had

a small chest tube placed. While I was there I also told him about the

pain in my back, left side like right undermy ribs. I told him that I

refuse to take a deep breath b/c it hurts so bad and I told him that I

thought that it was my lower lung. He said that he thinks that its my

kidney. Can you get sarc in your kidneys too? Well, he ordered am mri,

from my chin to my hips, and if you remember I have to be completely

under for this. So I had to go to my pcp for the sedation order. I was

telling him of the pain in my back and he thinks that it may be my

spleen. I do have pain at times in the front where my spleen is , some

times very painful, but I didn't know that it could hurt in the back

too. Anyway, I should be hearing today as tot he date of the mri, and

Ihope that they don't wait forever for the results.

Lots of Love

Lynne
