I've been dealing with a low-grade panic all weekend in anticipation of today and tomorrow's scans, and I got absolutely nothing done -- no housework, no phone calls, nothing. This morning I'm having the total body bone scan done, and it was last year at this time that the bone scan uncovered the metastases in the skull, clivus and pelvic bone. There is no reason to fear that something else will show up, but I can't help but worry that something will. I also will have two parts of my spine scanned by MRI this morning, and the brain and last part of the spine MRIs will be performed tomorrow morning. The good part is that I see the radiation oncologist Wednesday morning, so I don't have to wait long to get the results. I just hope he has nothing to tell me.
I almost feel like I'm going to faint from nerves, and I haven't felt this way since my ankle surgery. I'm trying to calm myself down but it's not working very well. Please keep your fingers crossed for me and send me those positive thoughts. Right now I could use a hand to hold -- and some extra oxygen!
