Tom, it took Jack 3 PET scans until he got one that was clear. That was 5 months post treatment. What is the MO saying that it means? It's possible that the area is still irritated from treatments and lighting up from that.

I can understand why this would be upsetting for you, hang in there.

Regards JoAnne
