Concerned pet / ct scans

Hi ladies, praying you all have a Blessed Day.

I have question: I am scheduled next Friday to have my yearly PET scan and then having CT scan after PET. Have any of you Ladies ever had both scans back to back? My CA125 has been at 4.0 since I was put on Rubraca and last week it went 4.6 (which does not concern me at all) just never had both scans back to back. Any thoughts appreciated.

Thanks,

Pat

There are actually machines that can do both at the same time. I have had them back to back once. I my case, they thought I was recurring and was hoping one or the other scan would show where. Best wishes - Gwen

Thank you GwenHP, good to know others have had them back to back. You know as long as CA125 and blood work are all good you don’t worry but when it’s scan time that’s a different story. Praying your test were all good!

Have a Blessed Day!

Thank you Lizchips, good to know others have had back to back scans. I agree happy I’m getting both just wanted to see if others had received both. Kinda scared me at first having them back to back.

Have a Blessed Day
