Re: Hip/leg pain...
Hi Bonnie! I'm in Vineland (half-way between Philadelphia and Atlantic City). I love the shore...Avalon is a great place!
Coming as an update to my original post: I had my bone scan today. Since I work here, the lead tech did take a look at the films...left knee (not hip or femur!) lit up, as did both shoulders. In her opinion, didn't look like mets...films are in the Radiologist's hands right now...
My oncologist said that if the bone scan was inconclusive, he would order an MRI. I'm relieved, but reserved...
Thanks again for all of you! Take care!
Marlene
