Carla,

My fingers are crossed for Jim's CT. Just so you know, if you sign for it you can get the report directly. If you prefer to wait for your uro to read it and tell you, you certainly can. I never want to wait so I get the report (which is almost always done within 24 hours of the CT). I also get a copy of the scan on CD and go home and look at it. I never can figure anything out from it but so far there hasn't been anything to figure anyway.

If anything, I will probably quit getting the cd of the images but I will always get the actual report (analysis) from the radiologist. I can't wait for my doc to get it and then have an appointment.

You can do this! Jim did the 6 weeks post RC/IC and did fine. Just took some time to get his enegy back and he was good to go. His chemo too this point has kept him cancer free until proven otherwise. So, we are among those who it really did the trick for. He had another CT today and we will get results within the next week or so. So, keep up the good work with the treatments. They do help!
