Today's Journal
I called the Niagara Lung Diagnostic Clinic at the Niagara Health hospital. I just want to make sure the Dennis hasn't fallen through the cracks again. He had his follow-up CT scan on January 4th. Then on January 22nd he had an appointment with the radiation oncologist who gave him the results of the CT scan. He was told then that they suspected the cancer had returned and possibly had spread to the lymph nodes in the middle of his chest. He said he would arrange for the EBUS procedure at St Joe's.
About a week later we got a phone call telling Dennis that he had an appointment with the surgeon at the hospital in St Catharines on February the 5th. We thought at that time we were going to be given the date of the EBUS biopsy. But basically the surgeon told us the same thing that the radiation oncologist had told us 2 weeks earlier. Then the surgeon said he would arrange for the EBUS procedure. And that was 10 days ago and we still haven't heard anything.
Now he has an appointment on February 22nd with the radiation oncologist again who is supposed to be giving him the results of the biopsy but he hasn't had the biopsy yet. Argh.
The nurse didn't have time to talk to me this morning but she said she will pull his file and give me a call later today.

Later... she called back and they still don't have an appointment from St. Joseph's for the EBUS procedure. We were told that as soon as Dr Hanna gets the appointment they will call us right away. So, just continue to wait.
