Ihad my treatment today and saw my oncologist. We discussed the results of my brain scan and scheduled MRI (tomorrow). She is very encouraged that what showed up on the scan probably is not brain mets.

The report reads: "a solitary punctate area only seen on one slice located at the gray/white junction along the posterior right parietal lobe. This may represent volume averaging through a prominent vessel. However, given the patient's history of Stage IV breast cancer recommend follow-up MRI to ensure this does not represent a samll early metastatic deposit"

She promised that if she receives the report tomorrow she will call me. Otherwise I will hear from her Monday. It sure has put my mind at ease.

Oh Kate.........that's just what I wanted to hear from you. You made my night. Such wonderful news. I am confident it is nothing and am happy they are "on top of things" for your sake.

I hope treatment was uneventful for you and you are feeling alright.

Huge hugs and a prayer for God's Peace to surround such a wonderful person.

Kate,

Okay, so far so good. I have my fingers, legs, arms and toes crossed (okay maybe not my toes). I will say an extra prayer but it does sound really encouraging.

The report does sound like it might not be mets. I hope you get the phone call today. It's awful to wait over the weekend.

I am feeling a sense of relief. I know you haven't gotten the whole picture yet, but it is sounding promising that it isn't a brain met. I am praying that it isn't and am claiming that right now! I hope that you are doing well and look forward to more great news.
