Joined: Jul 2012 Posts: 3,267 Likes: 1 | Tomorrow is my 3 month post treatment PET/CT scan, probably my 12th scan so far. Low carbs today, no exercise..no problem there, and no food tomorrow until after the test. I will find out the results next Monday when I visit my RO. I usually don't wait this long, but it's at a new location, and don't feel like traveling to pick up the results myself from the place of testing, we'll see.

When these meaningful tests come up I often look back at the entire process back to my diagnosis three years ago, and subsequent treatments. This date in 2010 I was still in a nursing home after my three month hospital stay from November 22nd, 2009. I then went back to the hospital in March, then back to the nursing home, and back to the hospital again in April when I was finally discharged May 7th, 2010. It's been one rollercoaster ride, and a marathon.
