The one important thing to remember is YOU are the one with BC. If you want scans, blood tests etc. and your oncologist won't order them, FIND ANOTHER. They are right in the fact that the scans are only as good as the person performing them and the radiologist reading them, that is the importance of getting a copy and going to a hospital that performs these tests routinely...CT scans like you had with the bone scans are good, but the PET seems to be more accurate and can detect things sooner. I am blessed to have an oncologist who is a breast cancer survivor, and she is very understanding of my fears...you are your own best advocate in getting the tests you want...
