Well I at first was concerned reading the posts to this question since we are going for a PET on Mon. just 6 weeks after TX ended. We heard about false positives from our Dr. and that is why we are going to the Cancer Center we trust for the PET (could be PET/CT). But now I feel that I have a better understanding to hear the results and ask questions, so thank you.
