Thumbs up Good Day Chelee

I am so happy to hear about your good news. I just posted a ? yesterday about how scared we are to get my husband's petscan on Friday. Again, bad or good we cannot wait to find out. He will read postings today and even before I tell him your scans were good, he will have already told me the news. We love visiting here with all you special people and get happy with the good news and say extra prayers when they are bad. Hang in there Girl, we'll be right here for ya!! Lots of Love>>>Waiting For A Miracle>>Marie G

Chelee- so happy for you! We are two peas in a pod. Last year I had a brain MRI (no symptoms, but wanted to know) and a PET the next day. When they went to go get something at the PET appointment, I saw my chart just sitting there with the MRI results- so I peaked and found out my brain was unremarkable!! Phew.

Anyway, my diagnostic center always gets the results to my onc the morning after the PET and he calls me right away. I can't imagine waiting a week- one day I was a mess. I just had one last week (19 months since dx) and it was also clear!

I hope you get your drain out soon- did it say anything about that on the scan?
Like he left a pair of hemostats in there?

And Marie, I hope your hubby gets some good, timely results too. Can you guys do something distracting this weekend? Hugs to you both.
