Hi Kelly,

We had the PET scan to see any distant metastasis as Jenny was unable to do it prior to surgery due to her pregnancy.

I know that a PET scan so close to the surgery date is very inaccurate (I read somewhere almost 90% if it is conducted within 4 weeks of surgery + even more in the case it involves BOT), so I was surprised when I got the call this morning from the Radiotherapy specialist (not the doc) telling us that we needed to see the ENT doctor asap.

Perhaps he didn't know much about my wife's diagnosis & treatment till date and he jumped the gun when he saw 'active' hot spots on the PET scan?

I know it is near impossible to make conclusions with PET scans in this situation but I am still one nervous wreck at the moment..
