Woohoo!

Well Barb just talked to the oncologist and everything is clear on both the MRI and the CT scans. Woohoo! There is no new evidence of tumors or growth.

I went into these scans with just one existing "lesion" in my upper left lung. The doctor seemed to imply that this very small lesion increased ever so slightly in size. But it was not enough to concern anyone.

Actually the oncologists are starting to wonder if this spot is actually cancer at all.

But we're going to talk about it more with the oncologist on Thursday. He hinted that he might order another PET scan just to see if that area "lights up." That one spot is a little confusing at this point. But we'll get to the bottom of it on Thursday.

Overall though the scan summaries were very strong and positive. I'm hoping for another three-months off from the health industry.
