great to see you back but not under these circumstances! I can't help you with this since my HMO is adament about not giving post Tx PET/CT's. My MRI's, until fairly recently, never were very stellar but they are finally comfortable that everything is ok. I wish the same for you as well.
It would seem logical that a sinus infection would draw blood to the area and show up as a hot spot.
