Hey everyone! If anyone can help me out, I’d be seriously grateful... I've been deep-diving on Google for an hour and a half now and haven't found anything concrete.
My mom was diagnosed with breast cancer back in 2006, and then again in 2009. After all the struggles and trying different medications... her latest tests were actually looking good. The only thing is, she's dealing with this constant bone pain... so she went in for a bone scan.
The results say: Pathological uptake of the radiopharmaceutical is visible in the anterior portion of the 6th left rib, with a lower intensity uptake seen in the third of the right femur. Also, pathological uptake is noted in the ethmoid projection paramedial to the left maxilla, as well as in the right shoulder and both trochanters (more pronounced on the left), which is most likely degenerative in nature.
I'm really hoping someone can help me make sense of these results, because both my mom and I are going to lose our minds waiting until Thursday when she heads into Chicago for her appointment...😵
Thanks...
