Pet/ct results

I am really hopeful that this report Looks good.  I picked it up but don't meet with my oncolOgist until Thursday.  It basically reads no new disease, everything good except for uptake in a small bowel loop in lower pelvis where my previous tumor was located.  I Will see what my doc has to say about it.  It says it isnonspecific and they do not include an suv level for the uptake.  It appears to be thickened also which isn't really good.  Though, I am holding out hope that this is just inflammation and scartissue from the smAll bowel resection I had done in December with all the oth surgery.  We shall see.  But right now I am very happy.  It's been a long hard road and I need a break.  Summer vacation with the kids doing normal mom and kid things.    Even just a few days not to worry, even though I will remain forever worried.  But not today.  Today I feel good and will hope and pray my oncologist determines me to be NED.  Finally!  Hugs to you all.

    CCfighter, your scan sounds

    CCfighter, your scan sounds good!! I know you will worry until you talk to your oncologist, but hopefully the small bowel issue is from the surgery. You have been fighting this for so long and have been such an inspiration to all of us, as well as keeping us up on new research. I will keep you in my prayers that all is clear and that you will have a wonderful summer with your family.
