I don’t have an appt with oncology yet. I still have my chest tube in and hopefully get it out tomorrow. I had a fairly large air leak, so they sent me home with the tube for a few days. My surgeon said once that’s out he will drop the orders for a brain MRI and a consult with oncology. So I don’t know yet when I meet with them. I’m hoping soon for both appts.

How I wish they had sent me
home with my chest tube. Instead, they said “right on time” when they removed it - and sent me home 🙄 It was horrendous until home health came 3 days later.

So you can expect rhe MRI and an oncology huddle this week
- I think just having facts and a direction helps stress levels.
