Blood work as great, even my platelet count was up, and the scan looked good. However, the doctor was a bit irritated, but to explain I need to provide some background.

Our company's enrollment for benefits took place on October 1, and as part of that change, I can no longer use a hospital based imaging center without paying an additional $500 deductible that in no way applies toward my overall deductible. In other words, I'm now forced to use a free standing imaging center. So I did...unfortunately, the imaging center still hasn't provided my doctor a copy of their report and the scan that was provided to my doctor only showed the top half of my abdomen (though the order was for lungs and abdomen). Hence the irritation and rightfully so. I'm going to have to have a conversation with the imaging center especially sense I'm going to be using them a bunch moving forward.
