How to reduce infection risk ..?
The chemo due to start was delayed by an infection around the area they take the
pleural
/water
effusion
/discharge every few days. Seems like such a vulnerable area and one where we've not really been advised what to do to minimise the chances of this happening.

Distressing brain MRI
There is a 9mm ground glass opacity in the upper left lobe and I have a confirmed
pleural
effusion
. The PET scan did not identify any other mets, but the oncologist wants the brain MRI to ensure that this is clear. Possible lymph node involvement by the bronchus but not confirmed.

Myocardial Perfusion Part 2
Today I returned to the Heart Institute for the 2nd part of my stress test. I was injected again with a radioactive material following which I had an hour to eat fatty food then return for a repeat of the scans I had last week. All went well and I was able to return home a couple of hours later.

Ablation Update and Experience of Myocardial Perfusion Test
Good news is I have a new ablation date of 21 July providing my INR settles down. Meanwhile Ive had Part 1 of the stress test that looks at my arteries. I had to stop beta blockers for 48 hours and ensure I had no caffeine at all for 24 hours before the test. After I was hooked up the heart monitor

Nightmare 3 weeks but recovering
I went for an emergency chest X-ray and they found my
pleural
effusion
was covering 80 % of lung instead of the small amount of fluid normally there.

Heart issue or not
I have had 2 incidents where I suffer severe left underarm underarm pain, going down arm with some chest discomfort,sweats ets. First time troponins raised at 44 second time lower at 21. Ward Consultant said a Myocardial perfusion stress scan in December showed heart pumping fine. He couldn't explain

Anyone survive pleural effusion?
My brother has just had one thing after another these last two months. He has been getting weaker and he’s short of breath and has developed a cough. His voice is very hoarse. His wife looked back at his last scan and it revealed a large plural effusion of the right lung and a moderate one in the left

Myocardial Perfusion test
Aside from having stress echocardiagram and being on a heart monitor whilst in hospital and due to have a second ablation (first 2020) I have now been referred for a myocardial perfusion test which I believe involves being injected with a radio active substance to enable the medics to view my arteries
