  • I had been having daily headaches for 3 weeks, so my doctors wanted to check to see if my breast cancer metastasized to my brain. Here are the brain MRI results. Hope you enjoy this vlog, and please respect my decisions, as I feel they are right for me

    I’m very happy that it was dismissed by the doctors specially when he mention that the area of the headache and the area where the emangioma is were not the same. I’m happy that they didn’t make you go under such and invasive test like a LP if is not really necessary. I’m very happy your headaches went away as a further reassurance... and I’m glad you enjoy your time during this process and not pause your life with fear of a possible scenario.

    Omg! Your trouble with forming a question sounds just like me! I most of the time cannot find the words to respond to my lab results, and scan results when they’re not super definitive. That’s harder for loved ones to understand I think. They just want to hear “it’s not cancer” not hmmm... the doctor feels it’s nothing. “ Medicine is science right? I am a two time cancer survivor so I understand when a team of doctors look at the results. So thankful it’s a group to give an opinion. You inspire me because you are taking charge of your own health! That is what we cancer patients absolutely have control over. Funny you mentioned Gray not being in the post. Seeing you both as you’re taking the journey of life and living with cancer -that’s how it should be. It’s funny as a cancer patient to carry on with our jobs, relationships, families and life day to day and we find happiness and joy then those dr.appointments/scans/MRIs reel us back in. Living with cancer can be complicated but you make the good days GREAT ones! Even a regular ole day as a cancer patient is a great day!

    ovarian ca survivor here. i successfully dressed for my 3 MRIs last week meaning i got to wear my own carefully chosen clothes🎉 . i didn't know about the white gold--my marriage rings are white gold, as well. i can taste contrast😝
    the pads helped block the sound for me. i had a migraine-like headache for 36 days--super bummer. i dreaded having MRI jackhammer sound while dealing with headache but i made it thru by looking forward to special treat afterwards😃👍🏼
    my best advice for anyone wondering about MRI experience is:
    as soon as you are on the table, close your eyes and do NOT open your eyes again until they roll you out and say all done--so DO NOT open your eyes! 😑

    Glad it's ok. Stage 4 lung cancer here, had headaches and sensation changes in legs, had MRI brain.... result....no masses but small foci "probably" more than for my age possible vascular, possible demyalinisation. First thoughts were MS lol my brain jumped to worst case scenario, anyway, I'm still waiting for my neurologist appointment (next month) but after 9 weeks since the scan and headaches gone and no progression of other symptoms I figure it is just a normal abnormal finding. I figure they don't do a lot of brain MRIs on healthy people so anything they find could be normal, they just don't know it's normal. After you've been told you have 6 to 18 months to live and only palliative treatment on offer but have now had 5 or 6 clear PET scans, it makes sense to just wait and see what happens, no point worrying till you have to, life's too short. Good luck for continued good results and good health.

      I wear the compression sleeve for lymphoma symptoms. It's possible that it has to do with the medication, but I was still taking that same medication at the beach so I don't know.

    Samantha, I don't want to be that person who gives medical advise to someone under cancer treatment. But, (lol), I have a friend suffering many symptoms and she has crohn's disease. She is experiencing terrible headaches, dizziness, anxiety, sleeplessness and more. Her treatment is a chemo drug. One major side effect of Crohn's is that it depletes magnesium. And apparently chemo drugs can lower magnesium as well. You should research all the side effects of low magnesium. I know traditional doctors don't think of these things as much as I think they should. But here is a link to info on magnesium so you can check out if you might want to investigate this. It is major in my mind and could help you. It is a short video!! How Magnesium Reverses Disease and Saves Lives | Dr Alan Mandell, DC - RUclips
    Hope this helps. So glad the docs aren't concerned about your brain MRI results. Such great news!! Debbie

    Dear Samantha, don't you ever get the urge to toss all your medical files up in the air , and never bother to check anything ever again ??? Are you a religious person ? Faith can work miracles... In my country there are some Holy sites where sick people get well and spiritually as well... You are too young to spend the rest of your life , checking every part of your body , over and over again... Pardon me if I sound too insensitive, my intention is far from that . It pains me to see such a young person , get tormented in such a way... I send you all my love from Greece....
