Wow Chrissy, I'd say you had a crazy day BUT it sounded very encouraging. Sounds as if things are better than you first thought?

I've had 2 PET/CT scans and they are a piece of cake. They gave me valium before them so you relax as there is a lot of waiting and the test takes a while SO I was flying higher than a kite and felt like I didn't have a care in the world. For someone who never takes ANY meds (unless it's chemo and trust me I fought that also BUT the onc. won) I rather enjoyed the feeling. I thought of asking if I could take any of those "happy pills" home. KIDDING!

I'll pray for nothing but SUPER DUPER results.

Happy Easter to you also,

Mary Jo

Chrisy, I'd say things are definitely looking up! It's awesome that you have the two oncs to share opinions. I am so happy that there is no bone mets! Yesss!! Perhaps no new liver activity, double yess!!!
