One Week After PDT Blu-light Treatment

After the burning of PDT treatment for 4 minutes, red face for 2-3 days, skin peeling, the face is back!  One week and I feel the after effects are gone, now one more treatment in January!

The next procedure will be Basal cell removal in December!

And also, I am still checking out my liver & spleen!  The blood results for the liver looked good, but my doctor wanted another type of blood test, so today they took a little more blood!

Ultrasound findings:

Liver: The hepatic parenchyma is increased in echotexture consistent with fatty infiltration. The right lobe of the liver measures 17.5 cm in length.

Gallbladder: Surgically absent.

Bile ducts: Normal in diameter.

Pancreas: Obscured by overlying bowel gas.

Spleen: Top normal in size measuring 13.2 cm in length.

There is a simple cyst of the lower pole the right kidney which measures 13 x 12 x 17 mm. The left kidney measures 11.4 cm in length. There is a simple cyst of the upper pole of the left kidney which measures 12 x 12 x 12 mm.
