Hi all
What kind of follow up tests do you have after therapy and how often?
My oncologist recommended to have for the first 2 years a PET CT and once mammo and wonder if any of you having PET CT as a follow up.
I'm afraid of the incerased radiation exposure and from the other hand wondering if it is ok to skip it and just having an MRI.
Thank you
