Just got call from onc nurse. Hanks's CEA 1.4, normal for 3rd month in a row! and the radiologist FINALLY sent the rest of the report from the PET/CT of 5/28 where they hadn't done the comparison of the primary tumor from the last scan. So all in all, liver mets gone, lymph nodes negative, primary site still lighting up but has remained stable since March scan.
Whew!
Whew!

This is good news. I had things lighting up on my scan also, we have decided it is scar tissue. My CEA was normal so I am buying into the scar tissue interpretation.

Great news hope this trend continues. I can't wait to see if my CEA ever gets to normal range again. I'd probably faint. Praying for continued success.

Could very well be scar tissue. Hank had a spot lighting up on his rib cage, after further review by the radiologist it was determined to be a healing rib fracture! (He had had a little accident, turns out had a hairline rib fracture) all that lights up is not necessarily cancer

Sounds like things are going in the right direction. So great to hear the good news. So some celebration should be in order.
