CT SCAN RESULTS AND UPDATES

2019-08-14 · YouTube · Foodie Beauty · 12 min

Chantal reads and reacts to CT scan results she discovered online after a recent chest and pelvic CT. She describes feeling unwell with cough, fever, and fatigue, recounts the CT procedure, and summarizes findings: a 14 x 10 x 11 mm lung mass (previous pulmonary embolism noted), irregular lymph/node findings with concerning terminology, recommended repeat CT in 6–8 weeks and a needle biopsy to rule out possible ovarian/fallopian tube/peritoneal malignancy metastasizing to the lung, a probable benign splenic mass (MRI suggested), and a pelvic cyst that has grown to 17 cm. She explains follow-up appointments, expresses concern about anticoagulant therapy not resolving clots, says she must lose weight to become eligible for surgery, and plans to eat an anti-inflammatory, cleaner diet and post daily vlogs documenting recovery and weight-loss efforts.
