Johanna:
I pray that Ron's swelling is a side effect from the treatments he had. September hasn't been that long ago, so that could very well be a possibility. His PET/CT scan results will probably be available, like Christine said, later the same day, or for sure the next morning. You just might have to be persistent and call several times pleading for results. I call my oncologist's nurses, and I think I become such a pest, they find out the results for me. I pray Ron's will be good.
