that rushing with excitement

Well done Maggie that’s really good news. Your next scan will show shrinkage from the radiotherapy I’m sure. Xx 

Great news Maggie ,very pleased for you , long may it continue.  Ellen x

That is fabulous to hear. 

Ive been on here less than a week but to hear that someone who cared enough to reply to my first tentative post is wonderful. 

I’m sure this is the first of many great pieces of news. 

Love

Gareth

I am pleased there is no spread Maggie. Good news that it had not grown either, suggests it is a nice and slow growing one too which is a good thing.

I can't remember how many radiotherapy sessions you had before the scan, but I think it was only a couple? Mine took either week 3 or week 4 to show any sign of shrinkage. I had cone scans every day as it was attached to my spine/ribs so I had to be scanned before each treatment to ensure it didn't touch anything. Though after 4 weeks I had an Xray and a rough estimate (to my lay man eyes) it shrunk by a third. So when it starts happening it does a good job usually. Also remember radiotherapy works for up to 2 - 3 months after it finishes, so there is plenty of room for it to shrink and it will likely be your second scan after treatment ceases scan that will give you the full picture.

so pleased for you maggie.  let the good news keep rolling.
