PET Results!

I hope you all have been waiting by your computers with baited breath for my most recent test results. I've been feeling good. I've had more energy. I've had some minor issues that could have been symptoms: extreme fatigue, indigestion, lung and kidney pain, etc. But it turns out........... My cancer has almost disappeared! All the tumors in my chest are now gone! There were some "iffy" areas according to the radiologist, namely a strong of nodes in my iliac crest that were new or larger. Good thing my hematologist is also a radiologist, because A man with intelligence is just so sexy. Just kidding, it's good because he can tell the difference between cancer, inflammation, brown fat and a virus, all which cause false positives. I'd come in that morning complaining of a possible UTI. I was peeing cloudy bright neon yellow urine, which is always a little bloody too. I had to go all the time and it hurt! Turns out those "iffy" nodes could just be an immune reaction, something cipro could take care of. Yay, so possibly no cancer there. It was a busy day and I'd changed appt. So Dr. G and I didn't get to do our ceremonial over view of the scan where I bed for a picture to show how well, or not, that I'm doing. Maybe next time. Thurs. It's back to NYU for treatment.
