Spot on lungs found on PET - nurse says dont lose any sleep!!!
I am a little confused and really concerned. Had my PET/CT scan and MUgga last week. Was supposed to see my oncologist tomorrow (aug 9) but they rescheduled until aug 26, said doctor is out of office. A nurse from his office called me Friday and told me the results. she said there was a small spot "glowing" in my left lung that was not there the last PET scan. She told me she could not speak for doctor but that it was a small spot and since I had radiation on that side, and that was the side I had my surgery on, it was nothing to "lose any sleep" over. I am so worried. anyone else have such an experience?
I am experienxceing a little delayed reaction to test results becaues of another tragedy...I have twin grandsons born may 12, 2011. identical little boys. One passed away last weekend, found him in crib and blue. looks like SIDS but autopsy is not complete. we had his veiwing friday and funeral saturday. My call on test results came friday afternoon. sort of put iin back of my miind but today... i am really scared. i have a cough that seems to be stuck in my throat, so is it my throat or my lung?
