Hi Carolrob,
I see that this is your first post to the forum so I extend a very warm welcome to Cancer Chat.
Have you been told what type of breast cancer you have or what stage it is? I have had two bouts of mucinous breast cancer. The first was 8 years ago and the second was 7.
Are you worried about the actual process of the CT scan or the results? There is nothing untoward to the process. You lie on a plinth and a circular machine moves around above your body, making strange noises as it does so. It is not as claustrophobic as an MRI where your body passes through a tunnel.
As far as the results, I’m afraid that I cannot foretell these, but I hope that they turn out well for you.
Please let us know how you get on. We are always here for you whenever you want to talk.
Kind regards,
Jolamine xx
