Cheryl,
You are always so kind to respond and thank you. My question is if the cancer is under the skin, the CT should still show it? I understand it won't show microscopic. I'm having TORS next week, and my doctor is more guarded with my diagnosis now that he has reviewed my charts, but hopefully all will be good.

I'm just so concerned with the light up of the PET 4.1 SUV 2.5 months after small biopsy. I also have asymmetrical base of tongue which I had before any surgery and that is really concerning. However, the CT's, MRI's have been inconclusive except for showing the asymmetry. I sure hope there accurate. Then, there has been the ongoing pain for 8 months in the BOT area. So frightened right now.

Thank you Cheryl
