Cathy -- Hope it's an infection. I lit up in four places on my CAT scan. Thankfully it was arthritis. Got misdiagnosed with a blood clot on a lung scan due to inflammation from asthma. Scar tissue, infection, arthritis -- it's all good news after you have cancer. I am still be willing to take the tests, though, now that I have baseline scans. Take it easy. Saying a prayer for your sister.
