Mets now in my brain
Hi Everyone my latest scan has been a shock and made me sad. I was on enhurtu and hoping for big success. However after 4 round 2 of my liver mets increased and now i have mets in the right side of ...
So 10 days after my oncologist phoned me to tell my husband and I that I had brain mets, today she phoned me to say after my brain MRI that I don't have brain mets. What- joy but why did she tell me i did. Well the person who reported my ct said I did. My oncologist wrote to my gp, dermatologist and radium oncologist to advise brain mets. Don't get me wrong but they put me and my family and close friends through hell for 10 days. She has even advised me to keep my appointment with the radium oncologist for extra assurance. Thay appointment is tomorrow morning and I will see the scans myself and be asking many questions about all this. I have cried, screamed, felt depressed and so have my family. I am happy but confused so I will talk more to my drs. Sorry you all had to read my post too. I guess they get things wrong sometimes and this was a good story in the end.
Oh Cath
Thank goodness it was an error! Your Oncologist needs to know how you feel, relieved, angry....such diagnosis should, in my view, been double checked! Yes, unintentional mistakes happen....thank goodness its in your favour! Hope the comfort of the forum ladies did and will continue to help you through this damned roller-coaster
Take care
