    what i have learnt

    through this experience is to be your own advocate. Listen to your inner voice, your gut! Only you know your body the best, not the doctors. And yes , there can be many contradictions, as each radiologist reads scans, results differently....

    my oncologist did not even tell me about findings in my lungs, until I logged onto my insurance and find out about nodules, and abnormal lung field findings, stating my secondary dx is endometrial cancer (metastasis?) I had to call my oncologist to get him to follow up and now Im scheduled for 3 month repeat scan...so yes there are many contradictions...because i was dx with stage 1 with LVSI, and now the radiologist who read my scan on lungs is thinking otherwise...it can all be very confusing...

    praying for you to have good results...
