David: I didn't answer your questions specifically.
1. Lymph nodes, 8mm (SUV 3.5)which mean hypermetabolic activity on PET. Since these are so small could possibly be a false positive. Not sure, but need to be treated.
2. Dentist report fine. Got Floride treatments.
3. Getting a PEG
4. Believe tx will be rad/chemo. Drugs???
5. Also appointments set up with nutritionist, psychologist and also a psy. hypotist to help with mental aspect of healing.


Thanks David
