We just got the PET results from last Friday and more bad news. The metastasis has spread into the lungs-not just on them. The uptake in is head and neck has declined but the increased activity from the previous scan may have been from the radiation. So they can not do anything else for him here. We will be trying at Sloan again to see if the trial is still open. My husband is an incredible fighter and wants to continue with treatment. Hopefully a relaxing vacation next week will help take the edge off.
