Thank you ladies for replying so quickly.
Shiela- I will ask my oncologist who I'm seeing tomorrow morning about a rib x-ray verses a chest x-ray. I like your interpretation of "degerative" = "getting old and arthritic" LOL!!! but your are correct.
BTW, the little girl in your arms is Beautiful ;o)
Donna D- yes, I did have radiation. I have thought about the radiation too and you just reconfirmed my thoughts. I have heard and read that sometimes radiation can pass right through to the back side. I have no pain in the area so I was very surprised and this one spot only showed up on the bone scan and nothing on the ct-scan. It is in an area that I very well could have hit or bumped and not even thought of it at the time. Also, I could have coughed and injured the area. Thank you for sharing your very positive attitude with me. I like to be around positive people, they make me feel good. What you have said makes a world of sense. Cancer definitely changes our lives and makes us worry but I too am trying to focus on the "season" and the present when doing that time will go by quickly.
Sassy-
thank you for sharing your story :+). I'm glad you finding was benign too. These scans are a good tool but sometimes they can cause unnecessary worry and anxiety.
Hugs to all of you,
