I talked to my oncologist this week and he was definitely able to ease my mind a little more about the scans. He said that it's not abnormal for the PET to show some activity if we scanned too soon post-treatment. He'll definitely watch me closer, but we're not worrying!
Insurance usually pays for these scans every 3 months - no sooner. He is checking to see if they will pay to have one in 6 weeks, and if not, we'll do it in June. He doesn't see that it is an emergency, which is good.
I know these updates are few and far between. I see that as a good thing. Let's hope I have nothing to report until my visit in April. Thanks again for all of your prayers... love to you all.
