Hi, had to have a CT scan today, because I had a routine blood test the other month and my liver function results came back abnormal… I’ve had a blood test since and it’s stabilised…
Anyway results were sent to my consultant… and he wanted me to have a scan… which I’m happy about, but I’m absolutely terrified now of my results. Fingers crossed they come back ok…
Oh what an anxious time for you! Hopefully all will be fine…
It is so hard when you get scares that the cancer has returned! I have been there so many times! It’s good that you are being monitored so closely so if there is anything they can get a treatment plan in place.
Take care and hope all is Ok! X

Try not to worry or overthink it Vespa.
sometimes it feels like even though we are out the other side, we still have a bit of a sword of Damocles over our head, and I can empathise !
For what it’s worth and to help ease your mind, our bodies are so different the other side of surgery, sometimes things do go a bit up and down.
Ive had my CA19.9 cancer markers spike before … I mean 4 months post surgery in 2021 it spiked at 100+ and it’s meant to be below 37 !
It stabilised at next check and went back to normal range and all scans since then have been fine.
I just think our bodies are a bit more complex in nature now and so our standard levels are a bit more nuanced sometimes !
Hope you’re all good.
Awwww thank you for your reply!! Yes our bodies are definitely complex…. So glad your results have been good for you, that’s fabulous to hear… I do feel like I’m sitting on a ticking time bomb, but only when I think about it…
I should get my results in the next week…
Thank you again…
Michele
