The doctors told us that it is very rare for a patient to be offered a PET scan within 3 months of surgery.
As per my posts, Jen was an exception and you can see why they are so reluctant to give them out so close to the treatment date - it is very difficult to interpret the PET scan results!
Ana & Emily - if it has been past 10 weeks since you finished your treatment, then a PET scan is definitely something that you should get.
