Re: "Healed" rib fracture or...??

Leah I went through a similar thing a few years ago, I had a load of scans but none were definitive, I finally had to wait six weeks for a biopsy but it was deemed too small for that. My Onc then ordered a PET/CT which was clear and she felt I was fine and cancer free which was around six years ago I think.

I know it's worrying and we always will when getting these pains, hoping for some clear results and answers for you soon, I think in my case it was Sciatica that lit up as I've been suffering with attacks of it ever since, but better than cancer!
