Good PET scan results

I've only ever posted here a few times but I got my PET scan results that were taken after round two of my escBEACOPP finnaly.
My Hematologist said that the results were "fabulous" and that he "couldn't of hoped for a better result" which is alot considering the terminology doctors usually seem to use, and have used in the past; words like "adequate response" ect ect aren't often encouraging.
He said that there was no active signs of the disease anywhere on the scan. I'm starting my next round of chemo so pretty much almost at the halfway mark too! I don't know what the full results of the PET scan were as I often see discusses here with people getting into nitty gritty values. I'm just not one for understanding all that.
