Re: I think I'm in trouble!

Ah, the fun continues! I'm scheduled for an MRI next week....at MY request. Finally, got the okay from my oncologist. She had been dragging her feet since she really didn't see the need for DCIS.

What made me chuckle was when I requested it this time, she said it was a "good idea" since it is a good indicator of extent of disease for high grade DCIS. I think she forgot that I was the one that told her this back in February when she insisted that MRI was not good at detecting DCIS and was pointless for that purpose. I had sent her the research showing that it is 84% accurate in determining extent of disease in HIGH grade DCIS. Funny....she remembered the research I sent her, but not who sent it!

Regardless, I was granted my request. Flying out tomorrow!
