Default Asking for prayer, for myself this time

I went yesterday for a healthy heart scan, a simple screening to detect calcium in the arteries. That test turned out just fine but they found a spot on my lung during the scan. It showed an 8mm ground glass opacity. I've never even heard of ground glass opacity and of course looked it up. I didn't like what I saw and didn't follow my own advice to not research.

I saw my doctor today and he sent me for a chest ct. I had that done today as well. Please pray with me that it will turn out to be nothing or something that is fixable. My doctor feels it may be OK but wont know for sure until we have the results. He said if it's bad we may have caught it early to have a better chance.

I cannot get sick. I need to be well to care for Jim. I will find out the results by Monday afternoon when I pick up copies of the ct.

I am hoping the doctor gets them sooner.

Anyway, thanks in advance.
