We did a CT scan and found a malignant tumor on kidney which hadn't spread so she was cured by surgery. Post-op, she still had upper abdominal pain which was probably caused by an expanding waistline (due to weight gain) pressing on her lower rib cage. Thank heavens, in that case, for fat!denverdochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09574453567392165275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31176359.post-43728750280410841532008-11-07T21:36:00.000-07:002008-11-07T21:36:00.000-07:00Well one other story.

Last CT scan in June 2005 showed no cancer. Lucky I have Kidney stones or they never would have found it. I stopped Vytorin in 2007 and am now back on zocor. Don't know the connect but I'll never take Vytorin again.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31176359.post-58505018672117336232008-09-06T17:45:00.000-06:002008-09-06T17:45:00.000-06:00Oh good ...so I took Zetia from the time it came o...Oh good ...so I took Zetia from the time it came on the market till about 6 months ago ...
