    See you doctor and ask for a scan.  If I had a scan when I first started getting the pain in my upper back I would not have ended up in a wheelchair for a year and learning how to walk again for another year.

    My doctors, five in all, were treating me for PMR among other things, turned out I had cancer in T5, non-Hodgkins lymphoma.

    For the sake of a scan six months earlier would have saved me a whole lot of grief.

      After what I went through I advise anyone who is suffering from something that is not explainable, as in pain caused by a definite injury or accident, to find out what it is.

      Nine times out of ten it is nothing but you have to know.  

      Wish I could go back in time, to early 2014.
