Re: Spot on lungs found on PET - nurse says dont lose any sleep!!!
I'm so sorry to hear of the loss of your little Leyton Joshua and you, your daughter and your family are very much in my thoughts.
I have not had a PET scan but fibrotic changes are consistently reported on my CT and they have not progressed. I don't know how they would look on PET but I understand that the metabolic activity that shows up is not always a cause for alarm. It would be good if you could get an earlier doctors appointment so you could at least feel you were addressing the problem. But if that isn't possible it seems you have some good things to focus on to help you through this very difficult time. Good on you,
Trish
