Just back from the doctor

Well, the good news is it isn't cancer.
But I have a form of TB. It's not the active kind (that gets transmitted by breathing) but the doctor told me to keep an eye out for symptoms. Honestly, if I get symptoms like coughing up blood, or persistent fevers for weeks at a time, that's not something to look for, that's something to react to.
The doctor told me that the "spot" on my x-ray was nothing to be concerned about. It's just a darkening of the lungs that's not unusual for people with colds/flus to develop. It goes away with the sickness. Lucky me, I get sick at the same time I get an x-ray, and the MILITARY doctors can't tell phlegm from cancer. YOUR TAX DOLLARS AT WORK, FOLKS!
So that's good news. The bad news is forever I'll have TB. It may be fatal, it may not, but I'm at the stage where it's not going to hurt me for a few decades.
(An interesting side note, if I were in the U.S. I wouldn't have been diagnosed, because the rules for doing medical checks are more loose back home. In Japan, if there's any swelling, they do diagnostics. In America, your arm has to swell up pretty big for doctors to deem it worth their time.)
Now you know. I probably won't die from this, but I'm not worried about either way.

Now I can focus on getting ready to PCS.
