So got my PET scan results today. Nothing on there that they didn’t expect to see. Which means no spread that wasn’t picked up on the CT scan. Confirmed lymph node under my breast bone is affected but what chemo doesn’t get the rads will zap so still all good.
MRI Tuesday then bloods Wednesday in prep for chemo on Thursday.
Yes I’m going to start and prepare things now ready for Thursday. Your posts CK have been really helpful thank you.
Good luck for 2nd session on Wednesday.
So Ali has her first on Wednesday and CK has her second on Wednesday and my first on Thursday. Anyone else got chemo next week?
Keep in touch Ali and let me know how it goes on Wednesday. Feeling ok about it at the moment but will probably be a nervous wreck by Wednesday.

Lots of love to all starting or going through chemo! I’m often thinking about you ladies whom I speak to more than my friends and family at the moment because we ‘get’ each other!
Been for another wig today and found one just like 'me!!! Lots of hair came out after washing last night and when drying but wasn’t too daunting as had it cut very short for Macmillan.
I’m going to have rest now b4 I go into work for a few hours. I do get tired more easily now so chemo ladies, we must rest whenever we can.xxx
CK just think how eay it will be just to put our hair on!! I also got a fringe from my wig shop, to wear under my bobble hats!! Hope you are ok and dont work too hard xc
Thanks CK
been sat at hospital 3 hrs today,had my marker put in my breast ready for chemo! And my tumour has shrunk…very weird!! but nearly ready for treatment to start oncologist Tuesday xx

The famous Bowler pants are big enough for all of us! They will help you! I’ve seen the fringes on the internet. Times like this bring people together, ex or not and good for your ex’s wife for her help and support too and to you for accepting it. It makes life so much easier when pride doesn’t get in the way and theres no bitterness.xxx
Sam
Good news about the tumour and you seem so much calmer now about your diagnosis! Well done.xx
