I met with MR. Silvnick .I had given up hope on all Dr's none would exam patients anymore. He took
Honestly close to 3 hours with me. Going over PET scans and MRI's. I have had a swollen lymph node under my neck 2 years ,and in my chest. Also a 30 pound weight loss.He really explained sarciodious. put everything in Laymans terms ,so I could understand. And ordered the correct labs. The Labs that I been asking my Dr's for. I Thank him so much for easing mind. And not saying depression it's in your head. Yes, I do have depression but other Dr's dismissed my symptoms because of it.yes, I have to still go for scans but I don't feel like I have to biopsy every lymph node in my body. He explained people can have swollen lymph nodes that don't go away. Worrie only if they become larger.
I feel that other Dr's really don't understand sarciodious. Rather than tell the patient. They just say your fine. At the time I didn't know if it was lymphoma. And when you keep hearing could be but I doubt it. Well ,that doesn't ease a persons mind. He explained if it was it was a very mild case and people have gone 20 years no issues. If your looking for a old school exam a patient with a ton of empathy he's your guy. Thanks again. read more
