I went to the er tuesday for abd pain they did a cat scan, they said i had diverticulosis, swollen lymph nodes lower abd and they found a lesion on my spine. All of my scan are normal and so are my tumor markers , I don't get it I have been cancer free for 5 1/2 years I went for a bones scan yesterday and i am going to see my occ friday. I had bilat masectomy and a stem cel transplant and i was tomax for 5 years and now femura. my occ said it's probably nothing. I hope she is rite.

    Vac, that's what we all face having this dx....but hang in there, as Granny used to tell me, 'don't worry worry til worry worries you'
    try to keep positive...it might be just that a lesion......you've made it this far right....:) you can make it, scary as it is to get these tests.
    I'm on Arimidex, going on into the third year now...2 to go. We are here for you, keep in touch with your friends and get out..try to take your mind off it til you see the Onc....I know it's hard.....God bless you and give you strength now.

    It could be a bone spur - my bone scan showed that on my spine as well as anything else worn out in the bone category. Stay positive - its hard to wait for results - wish they had instant replay like all the sports programs. Hugs to you.
