Update on Dad
Dad saw Dr. Buth this AM--Confirmed the bone lesions are for another source. Prostate is ruled out. More blood tests to R/O Multiple Myeloma. Prostate and multiple myeloma are two common causes of metastatic bone lesions. CT scans of chest and abdomen are being scheduled--should know this AM about dates to look at other organs. Dad is comfortable with medications. Dr. Buth told dad the "no golf, walking, etc.", was a bit of an over kill and suggested dad do what he feels like doing. I advised Dr. Buth (with dad's blessing) that we wanted to pursue aggressive testing to find the source and would be available at any time for any recommended testing. Will keep you all up to date. Keep good thoughts coming your dad's way---it is sinking in and he is quietly overwhelmed by all the news/activity.
Love,
Mom
