    no need to wait

    If you wish, you can get a copy of the report as soon as it is complete. Sometimes you need to push a bit but you can get one from the imaging facility; you may need to go in person and sign a release doc. The impression statement is the key part and it will have a lot of medical terms but you can understand the basics. Good luck, Don

    Sending a ton of prayers...

    and buckets of positive thoughts.  The wait is horrible, the relief that follows tho, will have you floating off the ground.  I know he'll be fine....

    PET Scan

    They waited 3 months after I completed radiation and the PET Scan showed up spotty but they knew it was from radiation. The wait between the scan and getting the results drove me nuts.

    Hoping all turns out well.
