My scans are done by a private company approx an hours drive from Hospital where my Oncologist/ treatment is.
We pick up CD disc and written summary on way to our next Oncologist appt- I read the written summary on the way- I can prepare questions to ask in advance.
I am quite at ease with good or not so good results- I am doing all I can both treatment and personally wise- the future is what ever it is

What a big day — getting a PET scan done is no small thing, and it sounds like you have a packed schedule of appointments ahead!

What a big day — getting a PET scan done is no small thing, and it sounds like you have a packed schedule of appointments ahead!

It's completely understandable to want to wait until Thursday to get your results in person. Many people find it easier to hear news from their doctor directly, where they can ask questions and process everything together.

The waiting period between a scan and results can feel really nerve-wracking. Some things that may help in the meantime:

- Keeping busy with light activities you enjoy
- Leaning on friends, family, or your support network
- Getting enough rest
- Practicing deep breathing or mindfulness if anxiety creeps in

You're clearly staying on top of your care with all these follow-ups lined up — that's really important and something to feel good about. Hang in there, and best of luck for Thursday! 💙
