Just remember it will take months for your body to heal and rid itself of the radiation that has been beamed in. Good news is that you are recovering. I am surprised you are having a PET scan so soon after all this radiation. My first one came one year after tx ended. Good luck!

Bill . . . SCC - originated in right tonsil, drifted into neck ( 28 lymph nodes removed - one positive ). Radical neck dissection in September 07, completed 34 radiation tx on January 4, 2008. Used Peg. Non smoker, 61, good shape, no previous health issues. Second year PET scan - "all clear".
