shmurciakova: Everything I am about to say is hearsay, and must be verified. I have been told that a PET cannot see below 6mm. My CT showed 20-plus nodules,1-3mm, "suspicious" for lung mets. Subsequent biopsy confirmed cc mets. I would ask more questions regarding CT VS PET scans, and if
your current results rule out mets. Bud0 -

Hi, I was diagnosed 2 years ago with stage 3 rectal cancer and they have yet to give me a clean bill of health. They say that I have two spots on my liver and two spots on my lung. For about 6 months, they weren't sure ;now a month and a half ago I was told that my CEA levels were rising. So I am not sure either.0
