Linda,
It could be that he doesn't have the results back as yet. I went to my onc's office on Thursday to get blood drawn (counts, HER2 serum test and genetics). While I was there I asked for a copy of my PET/CT scan that I had done on Monday and a copy of my echocardiogram that I had done the previous Tuesday. Well, the nurse had to get on the phone. Got the echo results faxed over so I got my copy of that. The place where I had the PET/CT said they didn't have the report finished yet. Makes me wonder what's taking so long as they said my doctor would have the results the next day. I'm worried and trying to keep my mind occupied with other things -- it's not working. Hang in there, I'm sure your results will be ok. Keep us posted.
