I'm wondering the same thing & will ask for clarification. The onc called me with the results (she asked if that was okay before the scan) and I was sort of rattled to say the least. But she was very clear that this was a new primary, not a spread of the first cancer. She said that though it was tough to have this, it is far better than having the original one spread. I'll take that over stage 4 any day. I can't help feeling that they must be related though. Anyway, she said to call anytime with questions, so I have a bunch & will call Moday. Let me know if you think of anything else I should ask about and thanks for your concern. XXOXO, Delinda
