I’ve discovered the greatest piece of prose written to date

May 26, 2017 by Shannon 8 Comments

“The previously seen hypermetabolism of metastatic disease to the left L4 transverse process appears to have decreased, SUV 4.0 before showing more focal intense areas of hypermetabolism with previous SUV of up to 6.1.  Morphologically, there appears to have been mild progression of sclerotic changes that may be indicative of healing.  Similarly, a lesion of L3 on the right appears to be less intense, SUV 4.4 before 8.0.  A left sacral ala hypermetabolic lesion is now only faintly discernible.  Previously seen subtle site of hypermetabolism at T10 has resolved.  Previously seen uptake along the proximal left femur has resolved.  There are no definite new focal hypermetabolic bone lesions.  The overall changes are felt to represent improvement of disease.”

So there it is, a snippet from the radiologist’s report after reviewing my scan from earlier this week.  Pretty decent.  🙂  Have a lovely Memorial Day weekend!

About Shannon

I’m starting this blog as a way to keep loved ones informed as I battle breast cancer. However, breast cancer is just a part of my life. It doesn’t get to define me or take over my whole life. If I have to talk all breast cancer all the time, I’ll be going from MD Anderson to Menninger Clinic faster than the speed of light! So, walk with me on this journey, cry with me sometimes, but please, please, please for the love of all things holy, enjoy the silly with me, celebrate the excellent, and focus on the positive!

    “Pretty decent”, indeed, sweet Shannon!!!
    When I was undergoing treatment and got some positive results regarding my response to chemo, my breast cancer oncologist niece called it ” a good day in Cancerland”. Your news qualifies as a “great day in Cancerland!!
    Much love to you, Delia
