Ah Tracey, the waiting is just the pits. Keeping everything crossed it's all fine :hugs:
It's been a real rollercoaster of emotions the last few weeks with a few of you ladies, it's like we all live it with you - I really hope and pray for positive progress for everyone :heart:

Tracey,
Thanks for letting us know. I'm hoping it is only the one met, at least with all the tests, hopefully some reassurance that is the case. :xfingers: that results are good. :hugs:

Adding my best wishes Tracey. I suppose it is hard to know what could be age related or cancer related. Did you get my favourite expression " given your history"?

Jezza I have been to the optometrist a couple of times about the flashing lights because my first thought was retinal detachment. The optometrist says I have had a vitreous detachment which is the eyeball coming away from the retina. So I really think my oncologist is just being careful and thorough. There is always the seed of doubt in this process until you get a clear result though. And you are right I have been extremely lucky in my mets journey and for that I am very grateful.

Yes...me too Tracey....more waiting....so stressful. You have done so well since being diagnosed with mets. I so hope that the scans come back clear. I guess you have regular eye tests? I have been diagnosed with Primary and Narrow Angle Glaucoma and one of the few symptons is flashing lights and rainbow coloured rings around bright lights...having laser surgery soon.

Sorry to hear about this. You know we are all with you.

sorry to hear hat you have to go through next week Tracey. As you say it is a kinda weird when a bone met might be ok rather than anything else. Test day and the wait will be nerve racking for you so I hope you have plenty of support. Fingers firmly crossed that scans are clear. :hugs:

Well I got my scan results today and I have a new spinal met at T5 and maybe right axilla. I also have had tingling in my right hand and flashing lights in my peripheral vision of my left eye for quite a few weeks which my oncologist feels is unrelated to the new mets so I am booked for MRI of brain and spine as well as a lumbar puncture. Also having an ultra sound of the axilla. I am having the tests next week and results the following week. So keep your fingers crossed for me that these latest scans come back clear and that I only have a new bone met. It is a weird world when having a new bone met is the best case scenario!!
