It was very strange to see this post come up this am. I just wrote Sandy last night regarding this post. Don't know what to do. I had a spot show up on my bone scan on a single rib (not the side I was radiated on) about 10 days ago. After an x-ray and a CT came in clear, they decided that it was nothing because bone mets "don't present that way." My marker was done and it was 20.3 About two days ago, the spot began to hurt. I just had my 3 week Herceptin infusion and don't know if it is that, or what? My onc. isn't worried and I am. My sense of judgement is wasy off and I can't tell whats what anymore. Help!!!!!! What do I do?
