First Scan

My son was diagnosed with 2b colon cancer in Aug 16.  After resection he did 12 rounds of FOLFOX and tomorrow has his first CT scan since surgery.  Should we expect to get any kind of feedback tomorrow and, if not, how long do you typically have to wait?

    I live in Canada and I think

    I live in Canada and I think it's done differently here. I have to wait until the appointment with my doctor to get my results although they're in the computer system pretty much the next day. I'm sorry about your son. Best of luck with his results!!

    Thanks.  It looks like we,

    Thanks.  It looks like we, too, will have to wait a week until he sees his onc.  My son is a lot less worried about it than his mother and I which is a good thing.
