Hi, everyone. I had the bone
Hi, everyone. I had the bone scan on the 23rd of Feb. but is was inconclusive. IT showed maybe breast cancer in the head and right thigh but it also went on to say that it might be something else or nothing. . I was in the hospital on March10.11, and 12th. They thought I had a clot in my lungs. I told them that I didn't want the dye for the ct scan since my blood pressure dropped and I had to get rushed to the ER in May while the were checking my MMMT uterine cancer but they didn't listen and said I would be fine since I didn't have to drink anything. I got through the test and fainted. They had a hard time bringing my blood pressure up and called a rapid response code. I woke up so scared. They had that thing over my mouth and were pushing oxygen with the thing that looks like a football. They also pushed a lot of fluids. The Dr that ordered it came down to the ct room with the other 16 people that showed up and stayed with me all the time until I was taken up to my room and I told her to please call my son to come to the hospital. She did. She put no more dye on my chart. The ct scan showed that the largest node in my lung was gone and that the second one was half the size and that the others smaller ones were there and there was no clot. I am on Faslodex shots once a month and one Ibrance pill a day for 3 weeks and 1 week off. I am going to call my Uterine Dr. this week and let them know what happened. I see them in May. I hope everyone is doing good. Sorry I didn't write for a while.

I'm SO GLAD you made it through their mistake and surely hope they offered to PAY for your hospital stay as a result....lol too much to ask? I'm SO SORRY you had to go through that! Sounds like they at least got to see some good views for all that trouble. Hope you are recouping well - praying and sending big ole (((HUGS)))

Namedropper - Wow! I can't
Namedropper - Wow! I can't blame you for being afraid. I think anyone would have been. So sorry that happened to you.
It sounds like the medicine is working on reducing or eliminating the cancer. Glad to hear it.
How are you feeling now? I'm sending loads of hope and support your way for continued healing.
Love and Hugs,
Cindi

Namedropper, I am so very
Namedropper, I am so very sorry to hear that you had to endure all of that! How very scary and so very preventable, too. If only doctors would listen to their patients! I hope you are beginning to recuperate from the ordeal. I guess the good news to come from all of that is that the treatment is working - but, boy oh boy, there has got to be a better way to find that out!
