A Tale of Two Kidneys - Chapter Five
Well, I swear that by the end of this process I will have had the most thorough medical check-up and physical possible by modern technology today! During the CT scan on my kidneys, they found what looks like a lesion on my liver. They say it is most likely a benign granuloma, which is a bunch of cells that have balled up on my liver. These are common and many people have them on their organs. However, the kidney surgeon had a liver surgeon take a look at my CT and they both agreed that it is better to be safe than sorry. So, now I have to take an MRI on my liver. I appreciate that they are taking every precaution to make sure that I am in optimal health to donate, but the setbacks are a little discouraging. Oh well. The universe works in its own perfect timing and we are all in good hands. The MRI is scheduled for Friday, November 21.

Hang in there! What you are doing is worth it. I had the same liver issues and an MRI, and it was nothing. MRI tip: I took a lavendar eye mask. The smell is relaxing and the eye mask makes it feel less like a coffin...more like a spa! Good luck. You are brave and Good with a capital G.!
