Hi Everyone; I did my first Pet/Cat Scan this morning. So I am nervous and hoping
for the best. After doing the Zevalin.
My blood counts are still too low. I did have a Neulasta shot 4 weeks ago and my wbc went up to 6.1 and then the following week it dropped down to 3.9 and now it dropped to 3.4
I dont know why it dropped again.My platelets did go up to 105, I have 6 lows and 2 highs.
So after all this time. So I will see my Oncologist next Wednesday.
So have some questions for him.
Hope you all are doing well.
It is so good to hear from others. I pray for everyone.
Hilde

    Pet/CT
    Hi Hilde,

    Good luck on you PET/CT results on Wednesday. I had a Ct scan today and will be getting my results on Wednesday also. Results day and St Patricks Day! Here's hoping it's a lucky day for both of us. Everytime I do a PET scan I have at least one false positive so my ONC no longer wants me to have them. I think I've had 8 PET scans in the last 2 years with 5 false positives and a positive surprise diagnosis of DCIS breast cancer.

    Please let us know your results. I will be sending you positive thought for a long long remission.

    I suppose I was hoping my Oncologist would call today which is stupid. But I have an appointment on Wednesday. So maybe they will wait till then. It is nerve racking.
    But coping with it . Thank you for your prayers. I pray for all of you. Glad to talk to each and every one of you.
    Have to find out what they will do with my blood work yet. It is still too low. So have to wait and see.
    It seems like you are just never done. Just feels like that.
    Hope you all are doing well.Lots of prayers and well wishes for all of you.

    Waiting is so difficult.
    I pray for your good resultS. They can tell the Dr. your results in 2 days. Why do they make you wait. I had my port removed today and I am so glad. I have good veins so they can put the Rituxin in that way. Let us know as soon as you do. Think positive thoughts.
