We'll since my diagnosis I have had my right Brest removed. All nodes we're clear and clear margins around tumours. i live on the gold coast and I see the surgeon on the 21st October to find out what...
Deanne said it perfectly - clear nodes and margins are the best outcome you could have after surgery - and a CT scan & bone scan are usually done beforehand to check for any visible signs of spread. I had the same scans, and followed breast surgery with chemo to mop up any stray cells. There was never any mention of a PET scan being necessary.
I am also on the Gold Coast and have found the care here exceptional. Good luck with your next treatments, Michelle xxxx
