Hi, Hezzy. I am new to the board, haven't yet registered. I was dx last month. I have a question about ur staging. How can your staging change in one month from stage 3 to 4? I would imagine when you were staged, you had a PET scan that did not show distant METS. I never realized that a month could change the picture. I had a PET scan that shows no distant METs on Feb 3, my chemo won't start until Feb 22. Reading your post makes me worry about my developing to stage IV before my chemo starts. Thanks!
