Confused & Don't Know What To Do.

Hi, I have been sick for about five years with Autoimmune type symptoms. I have seen a countless amount of Dr's, so much that I just want to crawl into a whole and die already. Except for that I have four children who need me. In January I was on the job (vendor) and as I was leaving a store with my co-employee, I walked across one of those black mats in front of every store and twisted my ankle. I fell forward and hit my knee's. The mat was hiding a hole. After 8 weeks of continued pain in my left knee they did an MRI which showed Marrow Reconversion as well as a torn Meniscus. The knee surgeon won't discuss the marrow reconversion with me because it is out of his scope and the hematologist didn't Know what it was. He called a radiologist and asked him about it but he said not to worry about it unless my blood counts began to decrease. Then my right knee began to hurt, (i have had pain in my lower right tibia for about 1yr &1/2 which I have complained about it several times to my regular Dr's) so they ordered another MRI which showed several spots(lesions?)  and in one there is a obvious fracture on the spot/lesion. But it is not mentioned in the report. After all of this time I have several lesions throughout my body(Brain, Liver, Rectum) and I could write a book on my symptoms but yet they still have know idea what is wrong and until recently there wasn't anyone who cared. I just do not trust the Medical Community where I live anymore. I have researched extensively!! and I am petty confident that this is some kind of Bone Cancer I have my MRI's on disc and I have compared them to several MRI's online and it looks like Osteosarcoma. I must mention that Cancer (breast,bone,colon,rectal,cervical) is ramped in my family and just last week my 19yr old cousin was Dx with Bone Cancer in her Knee. My Great grand mother Died from Bone Cancer And I have two cousins In remission from Bone Cancer. And there is a lot more. But I want someone to do something right Now!!! I don't want to wait for a Dr's consult or for my blood to start decreasing. Especially if it means I have to stay here where I don't trust anyone. Please someone tell me that I can take my MRI's to the ER in a major Medical City and get some real help. Will they Admit me and do further tests inPatient immediately?  Thanks worried in Al.

Well no one replied to me. I went to Montgomery And then Birmingham. Then finally I found an Oncologist in Panama City Fl.  Who I have an Apt with on May 29th. There was some mention of Hodgkins Lymphoma. Because I have had chronic pluracy and stabing chest pains for about 4-5yrs,someone said that Hodgkins can start in the lymphnodes in your chest and then spead to lungs, liver then brain and bone and that would be consitant with my progresson and Symptoms. I guess that I will find out at some point. I just hope its before it damages something so bad that It cant be fixed. I can Email the MRI of my right knee if anyone is would like to see them.

Thanks Anyhow Waiting in Al

 

i didn't see anyone replying to your message.  my mother went through breast cancer recently and now suspects she may have bone cancer.  something similar happened to her while she still had cancer (tripped over carpet) i'm wondering now if this could have been due to something else...  anyhow, i just wanted to let you know that i read your messages and i wish you luck and send you my prayers for tuesday.  it's important to keep your spirits up and get a lot of support when you are going through something like this.
