Carolin's New Hobby

The lovely summer of 2004 came to an abrupt end when Carolin was diagnosed with cancer. What follows are the random thoughts and experiences of the Camerons as Carolin fights back.

Muga scan

Muga scan went fine. Checked in at 8 am and was out of there by 10 am. They take blood and then mix it with radioactive dye, reinject it and then take the scans. Other than the needles it is painless. The technicians aren't able to give me the results but I expect everything to be fine. I will continue to have this done every 3 months while on Herceptin. Herceptin can have an effect on the heart muscle. The scan is just a precaution.

No appointments now until next week. Hurray!!

Herceptin next Friday March 10 at 9:30 am.

Have a great week.

    My goodness - are you having appointment withdrawal yet? Is your tiredness still there or are you getting energy back. We are so happy for you. And thanks for keeping us up-to-date. Whoever said "no news is good news" was a boring person!

    Hugs, Cheryl k
