Update: Mad & Confused

I went to see an oncologist yesterday and she has sent me for a CT of chest and abdom. PET scan and MRI of brain. She is concerned about the 3 nodules as I am. Hopefully find out results on Tuesday of next week.

I went back on Tuesday and the onc said everything looks good for now. The radiologist did say that there were some pharyngeal activity but was likely normal and some mild colonic activity which is likely normal. I am not relying on the PET scan because it does not always show up RCC. I am due back in 4 months for a chest xray. The onc does not want to expose me to too much radiation, but I would rather take the chance.
