It's now Friday: four days after Shirley came to the hospital for her initial outpatient testing. To recap, originally they were doing a white blood count study with contrast which was a two day test, similar to a PET scan. After the second test on Wednesday, they confirmed seeing some lesions on her liver. Yesterday, they did an ultrasound in the morning, but that didn't show up anything.
Next step was an MRI of Shirley's liver, which was performed Thursday night. The MRI showed pockets within her liver that may be infections. They then performed a biopsy to remove some of the pocket content so they can analyze and determine the next course of action.
They want to keep her overnight just to make sure there is no ill affect from the biopsy and she hopes to be discharged early tomorrow morning.
