Uncrossing Wires

Less than one minute read time.

Well I have had the right runaround concerning whether or not I would be given a PET/CT scan to confirm if my treatment has been successful.  Fortunately the stars have aligned and I now will be having the scan on 28 March, instead of relying solely on monthly visual checks by my consultant.  I have as I am sure you understand now got a slightly anxious couple of weeks to wait and am keeping everything crossed that all has been a success...

    Good evening Dave ... I think they call the wait ' scanxiety ' which seems quite apt. However, this is something I have never experienced as all my follow-up checks have been a visual mouth exam and the good old ' neck grope ' ... : )

    My Consultant said I didn't need a scan so I guess he knows what he's looking for ... it will be my six year ' cancerversary ' in July, so far so good.

    Wishing you all the best for the scan and appendages duly crossed ... you'll be fine !

    Hi Dave.  I have my fingers well crossed for you.  The waiting is horrible but you're nearly there now.  I'll be thinking of you on the 28th. x
