Re: Good news today

Great news, nothing like getting clean scans. Now that we have cancer, things that happen that we usually would have ignored get magnified. I can't tell you how many brain MRI's I've had that turned out to be nothing more than sinus infection. I started having these crazy buzzing , vibrating sensations in my head when I would be almost asleep, like something shorting out. My oncologist laughed at me when I told him about it, but ordered a scan anyway. I told him if my head short circuited or blew up, it would be on his conscience. My oncologist jokingly started calling me the crazy brain lady....sherry
