Thank you again for all your support and encouragement. I have no symptoms and the brain scan was done because I hadn't had a brain MRI since last August. And with the lung mets, she wanted to check the brain. I thought it would just show that I had no brain left after all the toxic chemicals that have been pumped into my system. I'm keeping busy and trying not to think about the "what if" but am thinking "it's nothing."

I've been plagued with sinus problems all my life and even had surgery on them in 1999 so I'm hoping that something is showing up in the sinus. Gotta remain positive here. Don't know what I'd do without the wonderful support and encouragement from you wonderful women on the site. I will keep you posted.
