I was diagnosed with MP last Thursday after a CT scan. Currently waiting on an appointment with the surgeon to confirm whether or not I actual have MP.

Hope your experience with surgeon and diagnosis goes well. I have been identified with the condition several times in last 3.5 years on CT. I have read in recent reports that biopsy is not always necessary for diagnosis. I'm getting biopsy soon. There is a MP group on fb if your not in it already and would like to join a lady will be inviting you most likely.:)

I don't use fb, my wife however is on it mainly to keep up with the kids and grand kids. I'm still waiting on the appointment with a surgeon, but have already started on the diet recommended for MP and it seems to be helping. Also, I tried making an appointment at the Mayo Clinic in Scottsdale since there is a Dr at the Mayo Clinic in MN who has done extensive research on MP, and I thought they could tap into his information, but they would not give me an appointment because I have government medical insurance (Medicare and Tricare).
