Thanks gals, you all have made me feel much better about this. I spoke to my internist who had the radiologist check the chest x-ray and at this time they feel there is no need to proceed with a CT scan. I am waiting for a call back from him because that was his message and I want to know more specifically what it is that was in question, ie; is it nodules, if not what was it and why no CT scan given the nature of her2 reoccurences? I do feel better about it though because I have trust in my doctor. Thanks again for the feedback.
