When will I or anyone of us die? Doesn't matter but having the mental faculty to be able to make decisions while living and preparing for any eventualities is the best anyone can do - do not go gentle into that good night buddy keep sinking and hitting them shots


I've felt better today than I have in weeks...... of course they "cleaned out" the stent - so that has to let the liver / bile duct thing function better and it's obviously working....

The pathology report is up on the Mayo website - but of course they're having website issues today and it's the only report I can't download and read.... and it holds the info on my condition that I seek.

Thanks Ness!


Since they cleared out the "sludge" in the stent -- I have about 1000% more energy. Must have been plugged a bit more than I thought.....

No report back from Mayo yet -- waiting for a F I S H test from pathology.....

How invasive is a stent flush? Is this something you could have done on a maintenance basis until you sort your options?

Good question Jeff and I won't know that until the followup meeting with the surgeon. Trust me - since that's the only thing that will keep me alive -- I will be asking this question of him!!

No problem bud.

Stent re-intervention(s) (cleaning, removal, addition, trimming etc..) is largely determined by the cause(s) of stent dysfunction/blockage.

I always encourage patients and family members to advocate for themselves AND others - (a rising tide floats ALL boats) YET still have trust left over for their medical professionals. Most really do want to help cause it feels good to ). Keep fighting Greg!!

FISH test from MAYO shows no signs of cancer. Now the Doctor still is saying "well.... that doesn't mean 100% that you don't have cancer". Yeah - okay - keep trying to find some. FAIL. LOL

Tomorrow I have yet another MRI (at Mayo).... we'll see what that shows. I know what it's going to show.... NOTHING. But who knows!

Funny how they rely on these tests when (and if) it showed I had cancer.... then they'd be 100% positive results -- but when they think you had it and they can't find any -- the tests aren't all that good. LOL So F'd up isn't it!
