Dangling Sword

Went to the eye doc to get some new contacts. And, I walked out with more spots that need to be checked on. One is in my right eye. That one I knew about. But, there are two new ones in my left eye. And, the size that the doc said the one in my right eye is not the same as I remember from the old doc. But, the old doc did not right down the size, so it is hard to say.

Anyway, just to try to pin this all down, I saw a retina specialist. He took some pics of everything. Now, we don't have to worry about arbitrary written reports. We can compare one set of pics to the other. He wants me back in a couple of months to compare things.

This is what to worry about: Choroidal metastases from renal cell carcinoma (click). It is possible for your optometrist to be the first person to tell you your cancer is back.

But, this is my life now. I guess when you live with a sword over your head you have to learn not to look up too often.
