The scheduling nurse called today to set up my PET scan and appoinment with the surgeon. Both are happening next week.
The PET scan is done to determine what, if any spread there is of the breast cancer through the rest of my body. They won't be able to tell what stage breast cancer I have until they've done this scan.
I've heard of this scan through TV, so I kind of knew what it was used for, but not the details. I'll be there for about an hour and a half.
I talk to the surgeon next Thursday.
They're moving quickly. I'm so grateful for that.
I did tell them I have trip to DC coming up in mid-June for one of my classes. I'm hoping I'll still be able to do that. They did say we might be able to work around it.
I understand cancer vs. class. One is far more important and takes priority over the other.
