I make sure I get all my tests, this year I had a ultra sound and digital mammogram on both breasts. I also get a CT of my pelvis, abdomen and chest every 6 months but my oncologist has decided that that should be done annually, we will see about that?
I also had an mri on my abdomen and pelvis this year. I also just had an endoscopy and colonoscopy this month. I have a gyno oncologist and a regular oncologist I’m not taking the risk that one might miss something and an oncologist. Plus all my blood tests required. Years ago I had a pet scan, a year later I had another and was told that the cancer did show on the first pet scan. I now know the scans are only as good as the person reading them. One try’s to be as proactive as one can in order to feel that one has done everything they can. My friend said better to find any issues and deal with them than not to know. I also and to Sutter Medical, Stanford for a second opinion and a third at the Mayo Clinic.
