I've been so busy that I forgot to mention my last visit to the pulmonologist. (At least I think I forgot to mention it.) I had a chest x-ray just before seeing him. He said it looks like my hilar lymphadenopathy is improving, and my skin lesions are all flat and fading, so it looks like I am going into spontaneous remission and likely will never have to be treated for sarcoid. Hooray! He also said it's quite rare for sarcoid to recur once it has regressed. So I'm probably out of the woods on that front.

I went to the breast care center today to have a little lump checked out. The surgeon was dismissive but not outright nasty when she said it was probably a plugged duct or something. I didn't think it was because it's been there more than a month, it's not painful, and it seems quite firm and fixed. But she looked at it, and she said that's what it is, and it might be there for a while--sometimes they "calcify down." So, another potential health problem is off the radar screen. They keep comin', I keep knockin' 'em down! It's like playing a video game or something.

um...do you want to get a second opinion on that breast thing?? Take care of yourself (I promise to get the thyroid checked when I get a check up...someday!!)

Naw, I'm sure she was right. And YEAH, I've been thinking about your thyroid today actually! while I was patting myself on the back for being so careful about preventive health maintenance. LOL
