The Wait is Hard


Yesterday I had a CT scan. I get them every 3 months to check the size or progress of my cancer. Because I have been dealing with a sore throat for over a month, pictures were taken of my neck too, to rule out a tumor. I have been tested for Strep and Covid, both negative, but I still have my sore throat, right side only and right ear ache.


I did my usual bloodwork and urinalysis too like I do before every infusion. Those numbers are came back in ranges that are normal for me. I have an Avastin infusion on Monday morning. I will also meet with my oncologist before that.


About 2 hours after my scan I had results on my neck. Fortunately there are no tumors or anything to give a reason as to my sore throat. So I am glad and yet still frustrated too. I think the next step is for me to see the ENT medical team.


However what scares me is that the results of my chest and abdomen have not been posted to My Chart yet. Normally it gets posted later in the day and then I discuss the findings with my oncologist when I see her. So I wonder if there is something bad. Now I know you will say, Dolly it is a weekend, I am sure nothing is wrong. BUT, I have been getting those results within hours.


So I hope for the best and try not to think about it, but it's hard. I am really hoping I will be declared NED...No Evidence of Disease. I will find out on Monday.
