Re: how soon do you get your bone scan results?

Thanks all for the reply. Really appreciate that. Unfortunately, the oncologist emailed back today saying he will be out of town till Monday and wont have the result till then. Do you think the radiologist should have the result and should release to us?

Re: how soon do you get your bone scan results?

Joyluck, I know for me personally I always have problems getting results to tests/scans if my onc isn't in. (However I know of other women here that can get their results regardless.) So it's not a set rule...that's for sure.

I know I couldn't get a radiologist to release information to me under any circumstances & believe me I've tried everything. They always tell me they are sorry but just not allowed too. But if you have a good relationship with your Mother's onc nurse...maybe you could go through another onc in the office and get a ok for you to get the results sooner? It's worked for me...might me worth a try. All the radiologist I know tell me they will get in trouble if they say anything. But I would call and see what they say...worse that can happen is they say no. Wishing you luck.

Chelee
