Joined: Jun 2007 Posts: 5,260 | I met the nicest 2 people today at Dr Ozer's office. Our man Jeff and his wife were there. They are very nice people and impressive when you meet them. As for my visit, it went very well and I am still clear of OC. The Cancer Study I am in went very well too except the young lady in charge of it had me worrying about her. I asked if she was excited about something and she said she had just missed an appt. I offered her my xanax seeing as she needed it more than I did. She laughed and relaxed a little. Jeff, I really enjoyed meeting you and your wife. You are a nice couple to talk with. Have a Great day everyone...

Joined: Feb 2004 Posts: 598 | Jim -- ditto -- great meeting you as well, and really happy that you are still clear. I posted elsewhere, but Ozer does not think that the lymph nodes showing on the PET are worrisome -- which was a relief. He is redoing PET in 6 weeks, so get to redo the whole process then. Take it easy, buddy.

Joined: Jun 2007 Posts: 5,260 | I have faith that your PET will go well and Ozer will give you good news. I am scheduled for a CT on Dec the 5th for Dr Viada and then an appt with him following the Ct. It seems there was a flash on the last CT. You and your wife have a great day.
