Al went in for his regular 6-month check-up with his primary care physician. Bos took a look at him -- with his swollen neck and puffy left arm and hand -- and ordered a CT scan. Needless to say, gave us a good scare.
Good news, it's just inflamed lymph nodes. The CT shows no sign of a mass, so they're going to scan him again in a month and see if anything new develops. In the meantime, he's going to try some lymphedema treatment to attempt to decrease these lymph nodes. Benadryl seems to help most so far, so I've been putting him to bed with some of that on board.
What can I say? His body's 'weird' (to quote every doctor he's ever seen!)!!!
