I am also looking at something hot on my PET scan. The first biopsy was negative, but the doc was not convinced, so I go under the local and have laser removal of more tissue, just to be sure. I was so sure that all of my treatment would make it go away, and the shock of a recurrence has me all a-twitter. Damn cancer!
