Yes it hurts, and it is scary. But you do not have mets and your cancer is being treated aggressively. Hard to treat doesn't mean it's impossible. It means that the doc needs to plan carefully, keep an eye on you and use every braincell he has to combat this cancer. And that's what is going to happen: you and your doctors will figure out the best way to deal with this.

I really like that the PET was clean.

Hugs
