After completing round #2 end of June with this horrible "thing" and all the complications in between, My DH had a PET scan just over one month ago results were promising but it was repeated on Friday. We got the results today, a previous "spot" on his lung was there but didn't flash, this time it said " Small less than 1cm nodular foci identified in BOTH lungs There is associated mild to moderate hypermetobolic assosiated with these findings, these appear increased in size since 8/8/07. Hypermetobolic activity associated with these findings is new since the prior study. Findings suggest progression of hypermetobolic pulmonary metastic disease since prior exam"

His ENT basicly shooed us out the door and said the cancer center will discuss this with us (appt tues).

We are devastated. We expected some positive news and got delt a huge blow. The river of tears has started again and not stopped since we got out of the Dr.s office.

What happens now? What to expect?
Thanks so much.
Sam and Richard
