Cancer Off the Brain

Yesterday, we had an appt. with Tom’s oncologist. His blood work looked excellent, and his next CT scan will be in January! We were able to talk a bit about my situation. Tom’s oncologist was able to answer a lot of my questions, even the ones I hadn’t voiced, and I feel more prepared going into my own oncology appt. after I get the results of my biopsy. He said I need to have a brain scan, and I was wondering about that as that is the only area that we haven’t looked at. I want to have the whole picture before starting treatment. A lot of my nerves have revolved around questions and not having answers or a treatment plan. I realized my frustration and worry has come from just not being able to meet with my oncologist, and I will feel better, whatever the result, once I talk with my oncologist. So, I have not been worried or thinking about anything cancer-related today. It is like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders. I will just wait till Tuesday for my biopsy, which is coming up surprisingly fast now.
