Strange Results from PET Scan
Happy Holidays everyone. I just got off the phone with the nurse who works with my Dr. I had a PET scan about a week ago. When I had the CT Scan, there were a few tiny nodules on my lungs so my doctor sent me for a PET. My doctor told me she was very confident that it would come back o.k. (they were extrememly small). None of the nodules lit up, except one which the nurse described the report as saying it "kind of lit up - meaning inconclusive. The other weird thing is, is that the area where I had the lumpectomy (I had clear margins) and the auxillary dissection lit up. My doctor isn't in today so I will talk to her tomorrow. Has anyone experienced this with a PET scan? Is there other questions I should be asking?
