Joined: Jan 2010 Posts: 142 | I can't believe it is already time for my first CAT scan but they are doing it tomorrow and I will have the results next week. Good news Largo is not showing any interest in the area at all. So I get a PET scan everyday but I am still worried just a little.
Cross your fingers for me.
