Medical Forum / General / General / September 2005Lung Cancer X-Rays
Did anybody in this group see the movie Constantine? At the beginning they show an x-ray of the hero's lung cancer, which shows the masses very clearly, and the calcifications even moreso. How accurate was that image, as a representation of a true lung cancer x-ray? > Did anybody in this group see the movie Constantine?

I didn't mean it to be insulting; I asked the question because I wanted to know if there is some reason you are unable to use Google. It's a reasonable question, since you keep asking for information you could easily obtain by googling. >> > Is there some reason you are unable to use Google? >> [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > It's a reasonable question, since you keep asking for information you > could easily obtain by googling. I have a couple of more questions that I'll be posting in the next few days, and if you don't like them, don't answer them. And if you want to answer them, feel free to attach as much snide innuendo as you want. The fee you charge is still cheaper than paying a doctor for three minutes of patronizing vanity, and at least you're honest about your hatred for the patient. > I have a couple of more questions that I'll be posting in the next few > days, and if you don't like them, don't answer them.

The reasons behind your communication problems with your doctors are becoming increasinly clear, John.

Sweetie, you're the one with the snide innuendo here. I'm a lowly nursing student. To get those links, I went to www.google.com and entered "lung cancer x-ray" and up popped links to the images I posted here. I doubt you'll get much help here in the future. >> >> > Is there some reason you are unable to use Google? >> >> [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] > entered "lung cancer x-ray" and up popped links to the images I posted > here. I doubt you'll get much help here in the future. Sweetie, I'll just post under another username, and no one will be the wiser. You guys may be the medical literati, but I'm the computer whiz. Besides, you don't honestly expect me to take anyone seriously whose name is O'Hush, and tells me to shut up. > Sweetie, I'll just post under another username, and no one will be the > wiser.

I didn't tell you to shut up. Here's the thing: It's like you're looking at the ground and asking us what color the sky is, and we're saying, "Look up." You're obviously sitting at a computer with access to the internet, and you asked for links to lung cancer x-rays (no mysterious medical jargon there). I get that you didn't know what a Nissen wrap is, etc., but all of the medical and surgical terms associated with Barrett's are available on the patient education pages devoted to Barrett's esophagus that pop up when you google "Barrett's esophagus." I know because I looked. I said to myself, "He doesn't seem stupid, just rude. Maybe he doesn't know how to use Google and needs help learning how." And yes, here you can shed your identity and start over. Maybe eventually you'll try a more effective means of communicating. Good luck with your Barrett's. ~~Patti "O'Hush" <rumraising@hotmail.com> wrote in news:kPXSe.60416$ou5.412743 @twister.southeast.rr.com: > http://www.healthscout.com/ency/1/ImagePages/1183.html Looks a LOT like the one in the movie. |
