Hi Shirleyt67!
Im so glad you decided to pop in and post! The journey is so very difficult and I have found it so helpful to be able to come here and vent and know I am completely understood. I dont get that anywhere else! Understood that is! It is a roller coaster and its hard to find your feet when they are constantly knocked out from under you. It does sound like you have a very thorough medical team and I would have faith in that. The Scans I know immediately your thoughts would be the worst because that is what this journey has taught us???!!!! BUT I honestly feel this is just a process and something they need to do and not for any other reason other than since youve had Chemo so to see how things are now. In 5 yrs Ive had 2 major lumpectomies, Breast Cancer twice and treatment and I am all clear and moving on!!! I do however have to have a Mastectomy because of a recurrence. So big breath, one step at a time, and I find dont look too far ahead but what you have at hand, it helps you cope better.
Hugs
