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 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 HazG
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
