I have medical news to tell all of you . . .
My oncology doctor wanted me to get an MRI of my brain, to make sure that there are no cancer cells in there.
The MRI happened yesterday and today I got the results.
The report said:
IMPRESSION
No evidence of infarct, hemorrhage, hydrocephalus, mass effect, or abnormal enhancement.
I couldn't figure this out, so I texted one of my doctors and he told me that I'm fine. There is no cancer in my brain.
Big sigh of relief!
PS--I'm going to give each person a rec as soon as I've read what they said. Remember that I value all of you and what you say.

Very happy to hear.
Why do we so often get medical reports (from a “Patient Portal” or whatever) before we can talk to our doctor?
Sometimes it causes needless worry. So glad to hear your news was good!
You'll sleep better tonight. 😴
What great news. I am so happy to hear this. Sending a big hug.
Thanks for sharing this with us.
You deserve good news my dear CaliforniaPeggy
Such happy news, for you and all of us here at DU. 
Thinking of u and looking for more news as u work through this 
I had one recently to rule out tumor due to hearing problems. Also negative. Don’t know if I was happiest about the absence of a tumor or the verification that I actually have a brain. 
Happy for your good news!
made my Day
They did an MRI of my brain and said they didn’t find anything. 
You are one of my original favorites here! I have had several of my close friends and relatives deal with cancer this year that I've had enough!
Such good news, dear Peggy!
What a relief! Medical stuff can be so scary.
We can't imagine DU without your kind and interesting posts! 
it coming!
I am so happy to hear this! I'm sure I speak for everyone here when I say we value you, too!
I wish you all the best. Always.
Best regards,
MIButterfly
Sending you extra hugs my dear
you're gonna beat this.
Peggy, I am SO glad to hear this news! Thank you for keeping us all posted, because YOU are very important to ALL of US!
What fantastic news!!!!! Congrats, Peggy. Couldn’t have happened to a nicer person.
when I read about "abnormal enhancement", my mind went first to plastic surgery!! Stay healthy.
What a relief.
and happy for you!!!
That also indicates that your head hasn't exploded yet with all that has happened the past 10 months!! 
I'm so happy to hear that!
There isn't a more deserving person for such great news. 
I couldn't be more thrilled for you!
1) no burst blood vessels
2) no areas of burst capillaries
3) No water on the brain
4) No signs of a tumor
5) Abnormal accumulation of contrast material in brain tissues, typically
indicating a breakdown of the blood-brain barrier, which can occur due to
various pathological processes.
Great news!
Wonderful news on this Monday morning. Blessings!
Sweet bab!y. I'm so glad you are OK! It's so excruciating to wait for a test result. You must be so relieved.
You're going to have a good Thanksgiving! Love you.
(Please don't worry about writing back.)
All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.
it saw you coming, girl!
That means we get to keep you around DU for much longer!
The report came back with the conclusion, "unremarkable brain." It was the most welcome insult I ever got.
So happy for you, California Peggy. I know what a relief that is.
