Hi Michelle,

I had a node misbehaving on my first CT scan post surgery. They noted it, monitored it and gave me a second CT scan but dismissed any concern as an active node is not unusual after the body has withstood the trauma of surgery. Next scan, she was gone (I name any recalcitrant nodes so I can chastise them and they'll go away, lol). I not sure when you say pre-treatment if the PET was done post-surgery...so I'll share this info anyway. I assume it was post-surgery or they would have grabbed the node it would seem. Bet you can't wait for Tuesday a.m. to find out.
