Joined: Jul 2012 Posts: 3,267 Likes: 4 | I went all the way into Manhattan yesterday to pick up my PET/CT report on the sneak, and left or dropped it in a coffee shop. Anyway, I read it before that, and looks good with my interpretation, no new metastases, other than the sinutis disease, which I have, and the uptake in the left lung, which they attribute to being pneumonia, which I thought I may have also due to the chronic coughing, mucus, possible aspirating, and previously having pneumonia after surgery in October. I'll see my Radiation Onclogist on Monday, ENT on Tuesday, and had faxed a copy to my oncologist at another location, and reserve further findings, results, until then.

Joined: Jul 2012 Posts: 3,267 Likes: 4 | Thanks Don. I do what the doctors do, just go to the end of the report for the conclusion lol. The recently treated area with metastases was obscured by inflammation for any detection, so I don't know if they will want another CT or MRI with my cancer background, but I can't do CT contrast unless I'm prepared by IV flushing before/after due to my kidneys, as my Nephrologist says, if necessary, otherwise don't do contrast or they may just follow-up in 6 months with another scan. The pneumonia in the lungs may require a CT scan, a sputum test, antibiotics orally, hopefully, or by IV, which may be administered in the hospital then. I'll probably have to see my local oncologist, who I see anyway next week, and or my primary doctor. I'm always thinking lol.
