    PET scan
    My thoughts are with you. May nothing "light up." When I went for my initial PET/CT scan I had just had a cast removed from a recently broken ankle. The ankle lit up like a Xmas tree. The radiologist had not been aware of that that and you could see from his report that he was just having a fit over the way that ankle lit up on the scan. It was the most amusing thing about the whole journey. Once again, good luck and no lights please. IRENE

    I had a PET
    scan done and I'm grateful for nothing lighting up but 2 small nodules in lungs. I'm wishing you a light free PET!

    I hope your scan was clear!
    I hope your scan was clear! my arthritis lit up on my scan! knee, ankles & lower back. I was worried, but was happy it was just arthritis. I already knew i had joint pain, so wasn't surprised, which by the way, i havent had any flareups since i started chemo.....weird...
