Is this something common / semi common post treatment? We just can�t stop worrying and there doesn�t seem to be anything else we can actually do now since his last CT/ PET scan was just done on 5/14/09 and this cyst did not light up as cancer. Is it likely to become another cancer? Just so frightening. Thank you.
