Went yesterday for the results of the PET/CT scan and its inconclusive! Ther are approx. 4 nodules - 2 in each lung that are too small. If they are small I guess they won't absorb the sugar stuff they give you, so the dr. wants me to have A VATS (video assissted thorasic surgery, I think) biospy done of the lungs to determine if this is cancer or not. I am a little nervous about this - don't really know why but I am . I guess because my original surgery was so hard I keep thinking every surgery will be that way, even though logically I know thats not the case! I am just naxious to get hte appt. at MD Anderson, then get started on treatment. On a side note, my onc said to get the ileostomy reversed whenever the dr. would do it since radiation wasn't for about 6 more months down the road, but when I saw the surgeon yesterday he said we needed to wait atleast 2 more months, a little disappointing but he isn't waivering on that its reversable just a matter or when!
