Donna:
I'm with you, I'm not a big fan of CT's. I am far, far from being an expert, but from my reading comparing the different technologies in diagnosing cancer, the PET scan is the best.
But I agree with you concerning the biopsy. That's the only true way.
I know that you get more radiation thru a PET, but I'm going to request it in the future.
Take are!
