David, I appreciate your input. The PET is all we are doing now, what concerns me is we have waited so long to do this scan, even in the presence of enlarged nodes. I imagine if these nodes light up, then we will talk FNA and then if necessary, what all goes along with positive lymph nodes. I must admit, as non chalant as I try to be, I am scared to death, as an oncology nurse, I know way too much. Thanks for your input.
