catlady91 Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 After a month of not so great news, we've got good news again. They thought that the cancer came back but they said it was pseudo progression. I thought that it could be a possibility but I didn't want to get my hopes up. My mum also had a CT scan done shortly after the PET scan which showed nothing. They though that they had mixed the scans up! They decided to explore further and they got in touch with the radiographers who probed further into the scans and said it was inflammation and scar tissue, not cancer! It's a shock but obviously a good one! We never expected this! Obviously the immunotherapy did work. Sorry for my previous ramblings. My mum's "recurrence" put me back in a bad place. Now I feel over the moon and ready to start living life 😀. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LexieCat Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 Really, really glad to hear it. Next time you get some scary news, try to keep it in mind. And if there IS a recurrence down the road (it happens to a lot of us), have faith that there will be a plan to deal with it. There often is. Either way, panic/despair doesn't help the situation.

catlady91 Posted March 8, 2021 Author Share Posted March 8, 2021 Thank you everyone for your support and for putting up with me😊. Hopefully the cancer will stay away for good but apart from death and taxes, there are no guarantees in life. I'll keep everyone updated and I'll still be on here to support others. I've grown fond of this forum 😊. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Judy M2 Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 Great news! It also helps to have a doctor who's willing to be supportive. A good bedside manner can calm everyone's nerves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
