I know what you mean. I got a copy of some PET results from the nurse one day when I was in for Herceptin. I had an appt the following Monday with my doctor because we knew from the results I would have to start chemo again. I knew enough to know that the results were not good, but I didn't understand some of the words. I googled "Chemo terms" and was able to find out what most of them meant. You might try this while waiting to talk to your doctor. I now do this on a lot of my results and am glad to find that some of the terms that sound scary aren't scary at all just a long word to say something simple.


Good Luck
