What kind of test do they do in a 3 month cancer check up?
The cut yes new nerve growth no still numb under my arm and sharp pains sometimes
Thanks i was wondering because i had masectomy and rejected chemo no radiation needed now they just watching to see if it comes back
Are you taking Gabapentin for those sharp pains that are probably nerve pain? So what kind of treatment are you on? Any particular drug?
I really am not doing too much at all. Just Anastrozole so there really isn't much going on to even have appointments. The radiologist told me back in July I could call him on as needed basis for Palliative care . There really isn't much my Oncologist can do for me anymore except prescribe meds and order tests. Did you totally heal from your mastectomy?
Most of my appointments are non eventful, vitals are taken and my oncologist asks how I am and about my meds, she does a manual exam of both breast and underarms, makes sure my meds have refills and sometimes puts labs in . Mine haven't gone 3 months yet but they have been getting further apart by 2 weeks so I am expecting when I go back in 2 months my next one after that won't be for 3 or more.
