Not sure if to take this as good news.

Hi everyone. Just after some thoughts of experience from you. Had mammo and ct scan results today.Mammo clear. Ct scan showing liver clear again (that was where they found my met) rest of body clear except something suspious on one of my ribs on my mx side.Last ct scan was taken after my rads on my mx area so thinking it might be damage from the rads.However I have a feeling they are preparing me for the news that it will be another met. Going for a bone scan and told if it is a met they will just add a bone strengthner into my treatment (herceptin Pertuzumab and Tamoxifen at the moment).They said my present treatment is working because the rest of my body is clear and that the bone strenghner will deal with the rib.I have always been tender in that area since I had my mx but even more so since I had the rads in september. What i suppose I want to know are they right can they deal with the rib and is it good news that the rest of the body is clear.I am trying to take this as good news but I suppose I thought I would be lucky enough to get away with a completely clear scan for once.Sorry I have gone on but would love your opinions.x

 

Hi,Ellie,that sounds like fantastic news to me! It could probably be from the rads. If it is anything in rib the zometa will strengthen rib.
But I’d be dancing on the table if I were you.
You go girl and keep kicking cancers butt,huge hugs,Helen xxxxxxxxx
