Well Tuesday afternoon I'll find out what shape I'm in, as far as my diabetic kidney disease goes. Then Thursday morning I go to my new doctor that'll be handling the lung cancer.
I do know from what the e.r. doctor told me that a biopsy will have to be done to determine which form of lung cancer it is.
Luckily Windows 10 has a few good apps on Cancer, so I know what I'm looking at.
I do know, as far as the biopsy goes, I'm not letting the doctore stick a needle through my ribcage into the lung's for it. There's no way I'll be able to lay still seeing it done.
I'm telling him to put me completely out and going through my mouth to lung's route for it. That route is basically like a endoscopy is. I'll just have a sore throat for a few hour's afterwards.
The question's are so far, from all the reading I did on it , is whether part or all of one of my lung's will have to be taken out. Then, whether I'll have to do radiation therapy, chemotherapy or both?
Hopefully, the last part, I won't be doing in April, so I won't be too tired all the time to build the pc.
It's also, a matter of whether my primary doctor can get my medicare prescription plan to cover the Chantix, I had him prescribe me, so I can quit smoking. If not, they're gonna cost me over $100.00 for the next 5 month's.
I can't use the patches anymore, as from my diabetic nerve damage, I can't tell, when I use them.
I have a feeling, even though my doctor will be stating to them, that they are medically necessary for cancer, that they won't care.
I was already through Medicare's shenanigan's back in 2009, over a continuous glucose monitor, that feed's messages to my insulin pump, in case it's getting too high or too low, so I can take care of it, instead off passing out from it, while I sleep.
They authorized me getting it. Then, the day I got it, they yanked the authorization for it.
They do their appeal process over the phone and they could care less, about what medical evidence you or your doctor's provide.
