I had a very long talk yesterday with my HBO doc. He consulted with my family doc and rad. doc and all agreed that the spot isnt something I should be worried about.
They all think its probably an inflamation, possibly scar tissue. The spot is very small. For now, there is no reason for the biospy.
After going thru OC twice, I worry about anything that lights up on the scan. Maybe I worry too much, but it sure is scary to think it could be back again. So unless there are any changes, I need to just move on.
