I had a bone scan after chemo and it states they see "no evidence of metastatic disease to bone", and "no evidence of bone destruction".
It did say there is some evidence of degenerative disease in the right knee and ankle. Probably arthritis.
I did want to add that if you read my Pet/CT scan report, it would scare the heck out of you, and I had 3 doctors tell me (including my Onc), that what it said it what it is. But, when I got to my Rad Onc, he poo-poo'ed the report and said it shows things that aren't there. That's why I had the bone scan.
Whether the Pet/CT was accurate or not, I was happy to see "no evidence of disease" on the bone scan report.
I'd also add that I think if you have pain in joint areas, it's more than likely arthritis.
If it's in the middle of a bone area, it could be something worse.
