Waiting for results... again

When I was first diagnosed back in January and had the standard CT scan, the report showed a few tiny spots in each lung, around 1mm each. My breast surgeon and oncologist both said it was most likely an overzealous registrar who wrote the report, as a 1mm spot would be near impossible to see on a blurry CT image. They went ahead with my treatment plan as though the spots were nothing. However, since they had been reported, they booked me in for a follow up chest CT after 6 months just to be sure. Well, today was that test. I now have a week to anxiously await my result and, hopefully, find out the spots were, indeed, nothing. I had put all this to the back of my mind during treatment, trusting my docs completely. Now I have to deal with the what-ifs. It's gonna be a long week, I think.
