Onc appt tomorrow- 6 month check-up
Well, this is my first appt in 6 months since all previous treatments have concluded... not taking anything now.
I feel great and don't expect anything weird (other than my period came back... again !)
I was wondering what imaging I should ask for considering I have no symptoms of anything can feel.
I did get a brain MRI; CT of neck and Chest X-Ray in 10/07. I also had a breast MRI and mammo in 4/08.
But its been at least 2 yrs since any bone scans or PETS.
I can easily ask for any scan I want and although I feel good, I know I need to remain vigilant.
QUESTION is -What should I ask for ? What would you ask for ?
