Hi all. I was treated at Ninewells hospital in Dundee and had my PET CT scan on monday. They have been analysed already. Do they give you the results before the follow up meeting or at the meeting? I know Peter was there as well so if he’s reading this I’d appreciate some feedback.
many thanks everyone
It’s the waiting game. It’s so sad that everything takes so much longer. Having a bank holiday won’t help either. Hugs and go do the can can but video it for us please.

Oh that is a bummer. It seems some hospitals plan it all out and others do it by the seat of their pants. I knew when my PET was and the follow up appointment ages ago. It makes it so much harder on you not knowing. Loz, tell them to hurry up with your results so I can celebrate good news for you.
yeah, it sucks.. I've been planning a celebratory trip to 'The Smoke' all week.. checking the weather to find the best day to go... so still sitting, waiting, planning..

so today I phoned my CNS to see if my PET-CT results were in, and was told "Complete Metabolic Response"... does that mean what I think it does? just want to make sure.. OMG! I'm in such a whirl... but in a good way..

that's what I thought, just didn't want to take it for granted.. so, a massive WHOO HOO from me, at last..
Going forward, am I classed as a 'cancer patient' for the next five years?
