Back from my checkup
Hi all, guess I'm the first to check in about our checkups. Had a lot of blood drawn, showed my onc an area on my top right rib beside the breast that has been showing some swelling for some reason. He didn't think to much of it but did send me for an x-ray, don't know anything yet. My primary care doc (who, I'm so blessed to have) has scheduled me for a chest scan on Weds. He had done this last January and saw something on the upper lobe of my right lung, said he wants it checked again. So, I'll be doing the scan this Weds. I'm so thankful for my PC, he believes in staying on top of everything, my onc is just the opposite, go figure! Anyway, this was my first three month check-up, the onc didn't order any scans or special tests, I saw him for about three minutes and he said "see ya in three monthes". I guess I can take that as a good thing?
Hope to hear from everyone else today as to how all the check-ups went.
Hugs to everyone
