    So now the gatekeepers have added ct scans, and a colonoscopy on top of my cardiac clearance. Lame.

    Want to make absolutely sure that you're free from any cancer or pre cancer.

    When I went through transplant screening, I was warned that any hint of cancer in myself or the donor would not be able to be treated due to the immuno suppressants and would ultimately be fatal.

    Let me clarify. It was 25 years ago when I went through transplant screening. I was approved as a candidate and placed in the transplant list.

    I was put on a new drug, just approved by the FDA for treatment of congestive heart failure. The intent was to keep me going until a heart became available. The drug worked a miracle. 6 months later when I when I went back for follow up, I had improved enough to be removed from the transplant list.

    Continued to improve over the years, to the point I'm completely out of heart failure. Still taking the drug.

    I don't want derail Wicked's thread, this his journey.

    It’s going on 5 years, I’m just starting to get frustrated with the whole process. Every time I see the end of the turbulence, there’s another cloud to fly through.

    Ok. Now I have 2/3 of my remaining stuff scheduled. Just waiting to schedule the colonoscopy. Sounds fun.

    Buy something for diaper rash, I use butt paste. Trust me you will need it. Both my legs went to sleep sitting on the pot. Used a whole roll of tp while waiting for my stomach to settle down. One of my top 3 thing to do in life.

    Number one is a cystoscopy, second is a Ct guided biopsy of my mesenteric lymph nodes, third is chemo followed by nuelasta. My top three torture treatments.
