Valley Fever Follow up

[Guest guest]

I had posted a while back that I had a CT Scan of my chest and they

suspected the spot on my lung was valley fever.

Well I was scheduled for a biopsy this morning and the doctor decided

not to do it. The spot is in a deep area of the lower left lobe and

it has lots of blood vessels around it. He thought it was too risky

and he said it was atypical of a cancer. So he was going to suggest

a PET Scan to my doctor.

Well I just got off the phone with my doctor and found out the

radiologist found an old CT Scan of my abdomon and it just happed to

catch my lower left lung in the scan. It was the same way 3 years

ago as it is today. They said they think it is an anatomical

abnormality and is nothing to worry about. I am going to do a

followup CT Scan in 6 months.

Now as far as the cough, the allergy doctor says I definately have

acid reflux,allergies and asthma. So I am being treated for that. I

follow up with allergy doctor in 3 weeks.
