Summer 2006

My son and I left Port Orchard, Washington and arrived in Chesapeake, VA on the 2nd of July. We spent the next couple months unpacking boxes, putting the house together, figuring out the area, getting my son enrolled in school (Senior Year), getting a new vet for the dog, finding doctors for us and all the things one has to do when they move to a new area.
I made an appointment to see a Family doctor in August 2006 and had my first appointment on September 15, 2006.
During the exam, I pointed out the the lump on my neck. The doctor, (Dr. Kim-Foley) became very worried and said that we needed to get this checked out immediately. She scheduled an appointment for me to have bloodwork done, a chest xray performed and a CT scan done.
I was immediately sent over for the chest xray, but had to wait another day for the bloodwork due to the requirement to fast for at least a day. You are not supposed to eat or drink anything before blood tests, so I scheduled an appointment for the next morning.
The CT scan was scheduled for a few days later.
Chest xray and bloodwork came back fine with no problems.
