today will be my first PET scan since finishing rads and chemo. They have not called to cancel, so I am assuming the insurance approved it this time. I'm a little aprehensive...but hoping to hear good results next week! Appreciate any positive thoughts and energy you can send my way on this.
As for lymphedema issue....they are still working on the hand issue....the arm is easier to drain and manage. Best news is I will be getting my pump next week! What a help that will be. In addition to the massage they have been using a pump at the hospital for me and it has helped tremendously. But today I must focus on the PET scan and pray for a good report.

    thoughts and vibes for a good report. My sister is having her first PET scan next Thursday since bone mets last Christmas. She has only had bone scans every four months. You are both in my prayers.

    I hope all went well with your PET scan today. It took about a week for my results and I'm hoping that you have a positive outcome. As for your lymphedema issue I hope it gets better. I know it can be very discouraging. Try to stay focused and positive and I wish you a very happy holiday!
