Jim, first let me say that I just read another post about your history and if I was wearing a hat I would tip it in respect to you. Your attitude is amazing!!!

I did read that PETs can have false positives but I thought that was primarily after radiation.
He does have small nodes on each side that you can feel(more on the same side than the opposite).
I guess that the only way to know if a node is positive is to biopsy it or do the dissection,right?
I guess that's the main way it would affect a tx plan is whether they need to do the dissection.
I was just confused by this it didn't cross the midline but it's on the other side stuff...

I also just decided I'm going with the there are no stupid question theory:

In people's signatures when they mention nodes is that how many nodes were discovered to be "hot spots" or is that nodes that were identified positive for CA???
