Hi to Lolly, mine are similar but don't come up unless they are positive. I am having physio on my right neck because it is so tight and still prominent gland, I re-read my MRI results today because I didn't realise that I had been given the first report back from March before treatment and even though in the second report there is no mention of the word mets it still mentions slight enhancement but overall large improvement on first MRI, and could be radiation damage? also first report talks of enlarged Paratoid, Saliva and Submandular gland which I was not aware of even I had been looking into that area when I was doing my researc, which explains numbness still in ear and down neck and slight loss of hearing in that side, all on opposite side of original BC. I am having the physio because I have been starting to get decreased movement in my right arm likened to become frozen so with my other frozen shoulder I will probably be a whreck if this goes any further, I was warned that too much radiation may cause nerve damage to my arm but at the time I just wanted to get rid of the lymph mets. So now how often should I have an MRI to my neck, last was 23rd November? The physio and deep tissue neck massage is making a difference, I could have a neck massage all day long, I have to do neck exercises every hour for 5 minutes, the big question who do I see, an orthopedic specialist or a neurologist, in my X-Ray my cervical spine has been leaning to the right from the tight neck muscles which have made the spine tender and I didn't even know until she pressed down my back, the tightness is right down to my right shoulder blade. Some trivial news today when I had my eye test, my eyes are healthy YIPEE, but I now have a stigma in the right eye, not surprised with the muscle pulling, but I am still short sighted so I treated myself to a pair of specs with all the bells and whistles, clip on sunnies, very modern, tinted for night and computer screen, not much good for the computer screen because I won't be able to read it with them on so I thought I would make good use of my health fund and they are very trendy even with a cabbage patch face and bandana. Talk to you soon.
Love & Hugs Lyn
