Don't wonder too much.....
The Angiography you had is aimed at examing the blood vessels.
This does show your dr. a veiw to see if the blood flow in a particular area is blocked or slowed by a tumor and also shows any abnormal blood vessels. Mary Jo while this test is aimed at obtaining detailed images of your blood vessels I would think if something was cooking in there,
the dr. would get a view.
Be assured before your surgery he will do blood tests and maybe you might want to consider the Her2 Serum blood test to ease your mind.
Even though there has been some discussion of Serum test to only be used for
those who have spread of disease, that is not so...I had met the dr.
who invented the Her2 blood test while in SA and he was very encouraging about having the test for early stagers.
Just another thought. Try to relax I am certain you will hear all good
results from your recent test....go out shopping and buy something new
for your new figure....
All good wishes and blessings.
