Re: Pet Scan for Stage 1?
I am IDC (with some DCIS and ALH) HER2+++, ER-/PR-, Stage 1, Grade 3. I too have heard the majority of HER2+ are ER-.
I have 10 Rads left (out of 33) and I asked my Rads ONC yesterday about another pet scan since my last one was just a day prior to my lumpectomy and he said about 3 months after radiation will be my next one. I don't know if I can wait that long....I really want to know NOW if my cancer has spread or if anything new has popped up.
