Just got results to PET/CT scans...
Its been 15 months since DX and I just had my 6 month PET/CT scan. I had to see my pulmonary for another reason so I was sneaky and asked him how my lungs looked on my scans I JUST had the day before? (He had no idea no one told me the results yet.) hahaha Or I would of HAD to WAIT another week to find out. My onc likes to stress me out.
So my pulmonary has them in his hot little hands and says, "Well he says to start off it says there is NO evidence of metastatic disease". (Oh what a RELIEF that was to hear.) I am so glad I had an appt with my pulmonary because I would of HAD to wait for the results another week. Now I can relax and enjoy some.  I even asked for copies of the PET/CT. So now my onc WON'T have any idea I already have the reports. I will PLAY DUMB when I go in and act like she is telling me for the first time. lol (Not to bore anyone...I am just happy about a little good news for a change.)
