I did the CT Scan

[Faith in Him]

I decided to do the CT scan before the holidays. They came back clean. Obviously, I'm very relieved.

Anyways, just posting to give some hope. Clean scans after 18 positive nodes and a local recurrence while on herceptin. My local recurrence was triple neg. but I can't help but think that I may still be receiving benefit from herceptin elsewhere in my body.

Aaaaahh!! Now enjoy the holidays fully My Dear. I am so thrilled and relieved myself for you Tonya; as I read the results of your findings.....I salute you!! Again, I know this decision to have the scans done before the holidays was a long thought process for you with many things to consider.

Right now we are there too. Mighty Oak needs the Gamma Knife and we decided to wait a few weeks to see what others may declare themselves in that time. Just so happens that my 'lil Sweetie will be Gamma-rized around Christmas and will be sick during the holidays. Whaaah.

Again, this news made my weekend happier.>>Believe51

Awesome news, Tonya! I am very happy for you. I can imagine how relieved you and your family must be. Have a joyous holiday season!

I too am having an MRI on Wednesday of next week of my left side. There is some hardning like scar tissue under the skin. I had bilateral mastectomy in Jan 08. Since my onc is concerned, I too am worried. Praying for clear results myself.

Can you please share how your local reccurence was detected? Was it visible on the scar line or under the skin?

Hi Tonya, I'm glad you decided to do the CT now. There is nothing better then peace of mind. That not knowing and wondering is too stressful.

Thank God, now you can relax and enjoy the holidays. I'm due for my scans in January, I start getting really nervous the month before but I think I will just hold off and wait. Again, your kids are so adorable..sherryg683
