My needle biopsy came back positive last week, but the type of cancer unknown.
After ultrasounds, pet/ct fusion scan, bone scan - they saw a small spot (1 cm) on my right lung (and a couple 3mm spots they say could be on any healthy person.) The spot on the lung had a SUV rate of 2.4 which is very low.
The lymph nodes in my neck didn't really show up as unusual- the Dr who analyzes the scans was surprised I already had a positive diagnosis.

I had surgery yesterday to take out the lump in my neck lymph node and other exploratory little biopsies in my mouth and throat to try to determine the source. At this time they are speculating a breast cancer recurrence but I won't know until at least this friday. They took out my left tonsil to check that out too.
