Unhappy Pet scan again

I had my second Herceptin infusion and saw my onc with the results of the last MRI indicating 2 mets in liver and saying these 2 mets were already there on the November MRI. He spent a lot of time looking at the pictures. Said the report of the new MRI was unclear because imprecise. He picked up his phone and called different places so I could have a Pet Scan again very quickly. So back to the American Hospital on Monday morning for a new Pet/scan and I am seeing my onc on Tuesday. He will have the results. More waiting. The second infusion went better. No nausea (the worst part) but bad chills and pain. I am better this morning. This is strange because I never had problems during the year I had Herceptin 4 years ago. Michka
