Most Recent Scan

I had my routine, every 2 months MRI on Friday. This time when I went in, the scan only took 45 minutes instead of 2 hours. The scan was of my brain and not my spine. Even though the scan was significantly shorter than previous ones, I still took Ativan to calm any anxiety. As I said before my scan was much shorter. A 45 minute scan of just my brain should be the new normal. My oncologist said there was no need to scan the spine and/or to do any spinal taps. I was SO glad to hear that!

I received a call from my oncologist yesterday telling me my results. He said the scans were clear!! Thank you Jesus, my Healer! I'll be seeing the doctor next month to go over the scans in more detail. Dr. Wanko (oncologist) also said that my scans can probably be moved from every 2 months to every 3. :) WooHoo!!

I will give another update after the appointment with Dr. Wanko.
