CT scans and Radiation

Good news! Nothing has changed on my scans....Im still all clear! :) I have some fluid built up around my excission( sp?) site where I had my surgery. The Dr. said this is common, but I will have an appointment with Dr. Rosenthal to figure out what to do about it. Im not sure really anything will need to be done or not.
I went to my first radiaology treatment today....it took about 15 minutes and I was on my way.
( 1 down..29 more to go! )  I rewarded myself by spending the day with a dear friend and her sweet babies. I had a great day!

Follow up

Tomorrow I go in for my follow up CT scan and MRI of my chest, abdomen and pelvic area. I am trying to look at it as just a formality. But, tonight I told Joslyn I had to go have my scans tomorrow, and she said, " I hope it's all okay, Mom."  UGh....I'm sure it is, but I am a little nervous. I keep thinking about the day I went to my general surgeon's office for my post op visit thinking it was "just a formality" and then getting the news that it was cancer. I would appreciate positive thoughts and prayers that my scans are STILL CLEAR. As soon as I know the results, I will post them. :)  Thanks to the continued support of family and friends, I am feeling stronger everyday and finally getting some "normalcy" back in my life and it feels good!!!!
Love, Love.
