Breast MRI

My breast MRI was clear. There is no nodule!!! It is likely that the nodule seen on the pet ct was benign and has resolved on it's own. I'm so relieved! I will follow up in 6 months with another breast MRI just to make sure things still look good.

Brain MRI and breast nodule

I had a brain MRI on Wednesday and everything is stable. The MRI showed that everything is healing up nicely from the surgery. I saw my clinical trial doctor and talked to my neurosurgeon over the phone. The mild headaches I have been having are normal and the right side facial swelling is from the surgery and will eventually go away. I saw the breast doctor and she was unable to feel the nodule so I will need to have a breast MRI. So this means that I will be heading back down to Anderson next week or the week after. I have a chest CT scheduled for the last week in February. I am going to try to get the MRI and CT scheduled at the same time so I only have to make one trip.

Mammogram/Ultrasound/ Biopsy.

Mammogram, check. Ultrasound- check. Biopsy- not done!

 It seems everyone is having a hard time finding the nodule that showed up on the pet ct. My mammogram was negative. I had 3 US done today, one by a US tech and 2 others by doctors. I was told at the end that this test was negative too. They didn't see anything to biopsy. I was told with a smile I could go home.

 As much as I wanted too I knew better and went to the sarcoma center to get in contact with my doctor. He is going to have me see a breast doctor next week.

Sooo more waiting. But I do feel better that it is either still really tiny or went away.
