Hi everyone. My sister had a lab, checking cancer markers and has found out that they are within normal range. She also had a PET scan last Monday and is still waiting to hear about that. A call to the oncologist's office at the end of the week revealed that he is on vacation, so she is still waiting. She has decided to have the additional surgery on lymph since there were two micro spots in the sentinel node. That surgery is also on hold, probably until the oncologist reviews the PET. The waiting is hard, as I'm sure you all understand. She is planning on going on vacation with us to the shore in early May, provided her treatment plan doesn't interfere. Thank you so much for your replies. I'll be writing again as soon as we know anything more.
