Eric,
I'm sorry you and Caryn are having to go through this. I know the uncertainty is tough.
In my case, we took the PET scan as definitive, as it showed the same neck and arm nodes active as were on my first recurrence. Also, my onc and nurses said they feel the PET is very accurate. I did have one of the nodes on my neck biopsied the first time, but I have lymphedema on that side, and the surgery, even though minor, really raised hob with my arm, so I didn't want to go through that again. I do remember reading several posts on this site some time ago, discussing lung mets being biopsied. Hopefully these ladies will reply.
Keep us posted on the results tomorrow.
