History Of TB. USG Shows Impaired Kidney Function. High Creatinine Level. Transplant Required?
My wife went to the hospital yesterday to have some lumps checked out in her breasts. These appera to be just cysts. However during the ultrasound scan they discovered a shadow on the upper middle part of the chest. She has to go back for an MRI scan but is naturally worried about the condition. By the way she has also had swollen glands in her neck and groin recently.

Dear Sir,
Sorry to hear about your wife's condition. As per your history she probably has multiple enlarged lymph nodes in her body and this condition needs to evaluated with proper scans and a biopsy to rule out the possibility of a lymphoma. In addition the MRI will also tell us in detail about her breast lumps.
Hoping for the best.
