Covid - vaccination?
Hi to everyone,
I'm not sure if this is the right topic but, have any of you discussed if ASPS patient should receive a COVID vaccine? Any risk than a person with no ASPS?

Re: Martin from Macedonia - Dx Jan 2015
Hello Olga thank you for your reply All the scans are done on the same CT scanner but without contrast, as I have very bad reaction from the contrast. Probably next time I will do with contrast. we compared Sep2020 with March 2018. In March 2018 the report says 3mm but yesterday the Radiologist on t...

Re: Martin from Macedonia - Dx Jan 2015
Thank you Olga,
I also did today abdomen MRI and last Thursday Brain MRI.
Brain MRI is all clear.
I'm still having difficulty with finding a date for pelvic MRI as here in the state system is little bit chaotic but hopefully I will do it in September

Re: Martin from Macedonia - Dx Jan 2015
the pain i my chest is in my chest muscle. I did not had it during the scan in March
however if it was something big that can cause pain I think it was going to be something visible, right?
seems that the pain is less and less to me.
I think I over estimated my self in the Gym few times.

Re: Martin from Macedonia - Dx Jan 2015
I tried to get a Bone scan but there is none available at the moment through our Public health system so I should do this on my own in a private hospital.
Do you think I should do a Bone scan or with the latest results is not necessary?
