Mary Jo, Joan and Chrissy,
Thank you for responding. It seems to be standard care around the country for stage 1 cancers so I am going to let it go for a while. My medical oncologist did tell me CT scans light up many false positive putting the patient through unneeded biopsies.
The only pain I have is in my hips from sitting at the computer leaning forward too long!
I do take Ambien almost every night because I can't sleep and worry most. I pray much of the time for the women on this board and others. It's as if I NEED to keep praying then I am sleep deprived.
Take care and many hugs,
Dana
