CT ABDOMEN PELVIS W/O CONTRAST

Narrative

 

CT ABDOMEN/PELVIS WITHOUT CONTRAST 3/11/2013 9:20 AM

HISTORY: Urinary tract infection. Hematuria. Chronic prostatitis. Hepatitis C lymphadenopathy. Nephropathy. Renal hypertension. Prior appendectomy and bile duct surgery. Prior cholecystectomy.

TECHNIQUE: Axial images were obtained through the abdomen and pelvis without contrast. The patient was unable to have contrast dye due to effect on sodium levels.

COMPARISON: 10/14/2009.

FINDINGS: The lung bases are clear. The patient has undergone prior cholecystectomy. There is no evidence for free air. Osseous structures unremarkable except for some mild degenerative changes. The liver and spleen are normal in appearance except for a tiny incidental benign calcification in the spleen. The gallbladder has been removed. The pancreas is normal. The right adrenal gland is normal. There is some mild hyperplasia of the left adrenal gland similar to that seen on the prior study. The kidneys are normal in appearance. There is no evidence for hydronephrosis or urinary calcifications. There is extensive atherosclerotic disease of the aorta and proximal iliac arteries. The bladder wall no longer appears to be thickened as it did on the prior exam. The prostate gland is also much smaller than it was on the prior exam and is felt to be within normal limits. No lymphadenopathy is present. The right rectus abdominis muscle is absent or atrophic, unchanged from the prior exam. A benign calcification is also noted in the right anterior thigh musculature.

Impression

IMPRESSION:
1. No evidence for urolithiasis or hydronephrosis.
2. Prior cholecystectomy.
3. Absent or atrophic right rectus muscle.
4. Bladder wall does not appear to be thickened on current exam, and
prostate gland appears to be within normal limits on current study.

Final result

My Interpretation of the CT Scan

The long History of Lymphadenopathy and Chronic prostatitis and swollen Prostate, has been effectively reduced by a Low Beta-Glucan, Low Protein, Low Cholesterol Diet, and by not taking Medications with Cornstarch and fractured Beta-glucans that cause my Lymph Nodes to swell up, as they raise my ANA Level.

The mild degenerative changes of the Osseous structures and occasional paralysis from the waist down, may be the result of an ANA Level spike, which was why I wanted the ANA Level tested in the ER January 13th, and they refused to do it. Where did all that Calcium go?

The spleen in its function of recycling Iron, may have been damaged by High Iron Levels, resulting in a tiny incidental benign calcification, and could form a Cyst or Tumor from that, which was part of why I wanted Iron Serum, Fe Saturation, and Ferritin, run while in the acute episode.

The frequent foot, leg, abdominal, back, right shoulder, right arm, and neck cramps, from January 9th to the present, has resulted in a benign calcification noted in the right anterior thigh musculature, and may form a Cyst or Tumor there, what about the rest of the areas in my Body where I am having cramps, like my feet and neck and back and right shoulder and right arm, and jaw? How many Cysts or Tumors will form from this, like the ones that they had to surgically remove before?

The frequent severe abdominal cramps from January 9th to February 28, may have destroyed the right rectus abdominis muscle, and other abdominal muscles, resulting in a large bulge in the right abdominal area, from my Duodenum area to where my appendix was.

The dyslipidemia on my Cholesterol Levels shown on Cholesterol Levels that the Fairview Doctors only have some of, results in atherosclerotic disease of the aorta and proximal iliac arteries, like my father had, and needed quadruple bypass surgery, and may be part of what caused a lack of oxygen, and caused my Lactic Acid Level to rise January 13th, and though the Doctors argue that my Diet does not have enough Protein, I am cutting back on Tuna, and cutting out occasional hamburgers, to try to reduce that problem.

The number of calcification seen, and the kidney pains, may indicate that the renal hypertension came from excessive amounts of Calcium being filtered out in the urine at times, resulting in Protein in my Urine at times, and resulting in too much Phospholipids at a time, which contain Calcium, causing secondary Renal Hypertension, which was why I wanted a 24 hour urine test while acute, for Uric Acid, Calcium, Phosphate, Protein, and Copper, to find out.

When my Iron Levels skyrocket, where does all that extra Iron go? How much goes into the Urine?

The CT Scan does not explain the white and yellow stools, or occasional bilirubin in the urine, or the extra occasional ketone at times, or the hypoglycemia, or the headaches, or the Eustachian tube dysfunction, it should have been done in the acute stage along with a head CT Scan.
