I have asked both of my oncologists if they will follow up with CT and/or PET scans. Both agree only if symptoms warrent. Of course, every ache, pain or twinge send me in to a mini-panic that the cancer has moved or spread. My next mammo will be in October-11 months after dx. This must be protocal for stage 1 breast cancer patients.
