We got excellent news! No sign of reoccurance cancer. Emmett finished TX just 6 weeks ago so I was worried about the false positives I was reading about but his test was clear. With this test result and the physical exam he got we are breathing a sigh of relief and we will keep our appt for another PET/CT scan March 21st too. See my original post for results of our concerns. In this case the PET/CT gave us a sense of peace. Talk to you later.
