Hi,
My results were mostly good! My liver is normal, the CT scan result was just a perfusion issue and the MRI came back ok! It did show one local lymph node enlarged, but they think it's related to continually repeated infections, rather than anything more sinister. I'll be getting a needle biopsy with an ultrasound, but oncologist was positive that this is not a recurrence. Now far less stressed; I can breath! This is a roller coaster ride.
I really hope others who have posted here also get some positive news; I'll be thinking about you all.
Thank you all - I love the openness, support and compassion of the members of this site. X

Diane,
Yes you are always in my prayers. I share the same anxiety of all those aches and twinges just before the scan. I pray you will continue to be cancer free. I am on my way to San Xavier Mission to give thanks and I will add you as always to my prayers

My PET is Friday, Oct. 11th at 9:30.This will be 18 months since my liver resection for a solitary, 1.5 cm met with clear margins, no lymph node involvement and 80% of my liver removed. I've had 3 clean PET/CT (w/o contrast) since and all have been clear. Seems like just before every scan, something aches, somethings changes, etc. The minute I get the all clear, those symptoms disappear. BTW...... this scan is 4 years and 10 months since my original Stage IIIB dx. Now Stage IVa.

If you're having any test this week (or procedure), list your name and I'll remember YOU in prayer!

If you aren't and you'll pray, send thoughts, swing chickens (missing Kimby today), jump in and wish us well.

Diane

OK Jewels, I know Pete is wrapped up in his Giants, and he is afraid to bother me while Matt Schaub is throwing pick 6's instead of eating his Wheaties, but why did I not get this info earlier? Love y'all anyway and stay on top of that met. Oh yea, I forgot Pete is a Yankee fan anyway.
Warm regards,
