Mixed bag CT report?

[chrisy]

Hi gang,
I went where I knew I shouldn't and read my CT scan report today instead of waiting until I see my onc tommorrow. I guess I felt lucky (punk?).
I think it is a good report - no new mets identified, everything is the same (including my stubborn - but stable tiny "area of interest" in the liver).

The one thing that was a new comment was related to my bones:
on Ct chest report: "Minor degenrative change seen within the bony thorax without evident blastic or lytic lesion of bone" and
on CT Abdomen/pelvis: "Review of the study at bone windows does not demonstrte gross blastic or lytic lesions of bone. There is degenerative change noted in the spine"

Does anybody know what that means? I sort of sounds to me like they don't see cancer in my bones but I might need to start taking something to strengthen and protect my bones? I'm not freaking out (yet), just want to get some feel of what questions I need to ask tommorrow...

Thanks
