“Superiorly in the medial segment of the left liver lobe there are two or three attenuation nonenhancing regions, which appear to be a number of tiny cycst. There are no enhancing liver nodules. There may be an additional tiny cyst in the inferior right liver lobe. There is possible layering of some minimally radiopaque gallstones in the low gallbladder neck. The wall is not thickened. There is no pericholecystic fluid. There is no gross bile duct dilation. The spleen and pancreas images are unremarkable. The adrenal glands are normal in size.The kidneys are not obstructed.There are no significant renal masses. There are no dominant renal stones. There is a peripelvic cyst on the left measuring approx 12mm. There is minimal aoritc calcification. There is no aneurysm. There are a few shotty periaortic lymph nodes in the infrarenal region. None are individually pathologic. The number has slightly increased. The bowel loops are grossly normal in appearance. The mesentary is unremarkable. The small bowel loops are normal in distribution and appearance with no signs of dilation or wall thickening. There is no ascites. There is no free air. There is a small hiatal hernia. There is mucosal thickening questioned through the GE junction. There was no discrete mass and EGD study is suggested to exclude malignancy here. The lung bases are clear with no infiltratesor effusions. There appears to be wall thickening of the terminal ileal loop, as it inserts into the cecum. The wall here is somewhat succulent. The mucosal folds are featureless.This is probably a terminal ileitis. There is no fluid or inflammation surrounding soft tissues. Prostate gland is enlarged, however, there is no discrete dominant mass.

so i have been having these things happen to me since i was six, the first time it basically it is visions or feelings, so six i was sleep and i woke up from a dream that had shown me that my nose was bleading and my teacher yelled at me for thinking i was playing around four days later the exact same thing happened the exact same way. i have had a bunch of things that have happened to me like that but the biggest is when i dreamt that i was urinating blood and i woke up close to being in tears that same day while my grandad was blowing out his candles (birthday) he annouced to us that he had prostate cancer and incase someone dosent know urinating blood are one of the signs of prostate cancer my most recent was about the new movie old dogs, i could recite the whole commercial the first time it ever came on but i had dreamt about it three years ago i remember because i woke up laughing at the part where he kicked the ball at the kids head and the other kid called him a moster +) but yea. i also know that my mom can see peoples pasts by shaking their hands she shook a pastors hand one day and saw that he had rapped someone then a month later he was put in jail for rapping someone about a year ago that day. uh i dont know if this will help but i can also make my eyes super unfocused and i can split the things i look at and make two of them by changing the focus of my eyes but when i change my eye focus i get really hot or thats what it feels like at least so please i need some help bad. thanks +)
