I had my pet scan last Wednesday and my colorectal nurse just rang they want to see me on Thursday which obviously means spread somewhere Cry I'm deverstated  I thought I was getting through all this and bang I'm back on the cancer train.

I feel so well no pain or symptoms of any sort but obviously it's somewhere.

I feel emotional,sick,.

  • Hi 

    that’s a MASSIVE assumption. Try not to assume the worst  until you actually hear what they have to say …. 
    I have a CT scan this coming Friday with a consult for results scheduled for the following Friday. 
    I sincerely hope you hear good stuff !!

  • Well the way she spoke on the phone and the fact tgat I was sent for a scan because my CEA had risen I think I know what's coming.

  • Fair comment.  You didn’t mention your CEA was raised and that was the reason for the scan  

  • Hi 

    Sorry to hear that . I know you have been concerned . It’s so complicated now as it was very much standard practice before covid. All 35 of my mum’s were reported in person good or bad .

    The way I would look at it given your recent scans if it is a recurrence could it have the potential to be small and contained given the troubles you have had in finding it . Then a good solution to quickly remove it and return you to good health . 

    I hated watching my mum hit these bumps on the road to recovery when you have put so much work into rebuilding your life and doing so well .

    However we are here and will support you through this 

    Take care ,

  • Thanks Court, I'm hoping it's been caught early given a clear ct 8 weeks ago ! The thought of chemo again fills me with dread after last time. 

    Is it worth having CTs if you don't get a true result now I'm beginning to worry if my original year scan in Nov was actually clear.

    My poor daughter has just been offered a job with BA and was on her way to London for a virgin interview and she wasn't going to go but I said no point in you putting your life on hold,that's all she's do e for 3 years.

    Well I'll soon find out tomorrow my hubby and daughter will be with my. I can do this Muscle 

  • you can do it 

    Hope you have some good news HazG 

    Good luck
