PET Scan update

It turns out there was no cancer found in the mouth again which is great news - mouth surgery and the recovery is awful - add to that reconstruction - it is a horrible thing to go through and I feel for all of you that have gone through this or will be going through it.

There was a cancer cluster found in the lower part of one of my lungs. I will be getting a biopsy of that soon then they will decide how to attack that. Have to have an appointment made.

I do not have to see the head and neck surgeon for two months. Overall, it is good news, prayers were answered - I know this. I still have lots of recovery ahead from the radiation therapy. I received the maximum amount a person can receive. So they may be able to remove the cancer in the lung followed by chemotherapy. I meet with my regular oncologist Wednesday.
