Question - kinda scared

So.. I recently went to an orthopedist for my back and he took two xrays. The xray tech and the doc both said that my ribs look weird... like they are those of an older person's ribs (I'm in my mid twenties).

When the doc was telling the nurse to write my script - he said MRI for the back and then he said CT of the chest to evaluate ribs.. mulitple lesions.. so I asked him - what do you mean about the lesions - you don't think its cancer or anything do you?

He said no no and then I asked the nurse and she said not to worry about it. But I am lol.

The script says - CT Scan Chest Evaluate Ribs multiple lesions

Does anyone have any insight? Please let me know - and help me put my mind at eease.

Thanks so much.

Re: Question - kinda scared

they write alot of stuff to get things authorized... your problem could be a million things so just relax and wait till you get the test results.. could be as simple as bone loss due to a birth control pill/shot..
im under 30 have osteoperosis and arthritis and its because of celiac...
all completely mangable but sound scary

just breathe ... get the tests (dont forget to get authorizations so you dont get 4000 $ bills)
then get the quick tests and it will all be ok
