Interesting stuff on CT scans. They can provide a pretty good image. However, they are worth 100-1000 normal x-rays, so they don't do them without cause. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-ray_computed_tomography

Tory and Devlin are not the best of friends... http://www.canada.com/story.html?id=623716ff-90d9-405f-b921-2787d4ca735d http://patrickoneil.blogspot.ca/2008/01/fighting-dirty.html http://joantintor.blogspot.ca/2008_01_01_archive.html http://www.daifallah.com/2008/01/sickening-new-low.htm...

Yep. Large mass. Obstructed. I'm thinking tomorrow afternoon.

In Robbie's case: The tumor probably led to an intestinal blockage that can cause extreme pain. You can tell there's a blockage on an xray because the bowels are puffed up like a balloon behind the mass. This leads to a CT scan of the area which will highlight the tumor. If it has spread, it...

I'm not a doctor.. but from my personal experience of seeing what happens to the people around me when they get old? Yes.

My belated condolences. My wife pulled through and it was tough for us. Like I was saying Doug doesn't know what's coming. My Father retired the day after his diagnosis of colon cancer and never wanted to go to work again. The bag is a real pain to deal with. You have to stay close to a...

Yeah, I'm with ya. Not much sympathy here. Getting sick doesn't turn a Rob into a saint in my eyes. The crap he put everyone around him through is unforgivable. He's out. That's all I care about.

It was benign with my wife. There was the initial surgery that left her with a bag, and then a second surgery to re-attach. She was off work for almost a year.

Doug isn't aware of what's about to happen. Abdominal surgery is pretty serious. He'll barely be able shuffle his pole down the hall for the next week or two. He might end up with a colostomy bag, and a surgical drain tube sticking out his side for the next 6 months. And then there's the...

This time the Doc said "Has a tumor" Found by CT scan. Sounds real.

On the "Working diagnosis of a tumor"... Lets keep in mind that the Doctor can't just go to the press and reveal medical info without the patients consent. I think Rob and Doug would impress upon the Doctor that the real diagnosis is not to be disclosed. Hence the "working diagnosis".

10 years ago my wife was having stomach pains and we went off to the hospital in the morning. CT scan by 10:00. Abdominal blockage located due to an unknown mass by noon. Removed by surgery by supper time the next day. Doing just fine now. I would expect the Mayor of Toronto to get same...

That's unfortunate. It makes it look like its not worth doing if Rob doesn't show up. Hopefully some of the organizers will declare their debate more important because Rob isn't coming.

I'm not sure Tyson can think that far ahead.

Karla Holmolka? It somehow seems possible...

I meant: leave him alone about his weight. Challenge him about anything else.

In general, I'm against fat shaming. Mikey hasn't said anything, so I think we should leave him alone. But ROB? Rob keeps making these claims he's some kind of athlete when he's 100 pounds overweight. Its just another one of his lies that no one seems to challenge him on. As far as I'm...

Just watched Robs Rant against LRT's and how its going to remove lanes and slow down his Caddy. The concept is simple Rob. Even an idiot could understand it.

Warmington's latest article is just awful! I saw it posted here, and I had to go to the Sun's site because I didn't believe it was real. I thought it was a fake. The pandering is so obvious, its childish: The mayor, who ran up the 64 steps Monday before his news conference.... “I think I...

Agreed. Bonehead moves all round. Volunteers need to stay calm if they want to work in a campaign office during a heated election. Boneheads are guaranteed to walk in the door.
