Hi there and welcome! I agree pet scans are notorious for false positives! Hopefully it's not cancer! Please keep the faith until you get definite results, good luck on the surgery - there are a few people here who've had total glossectomies and are able to speak and eat try not to despair! Healing vibes to you!
