I had my appointment with my Oncologist and he read the results to me. He could have been reading Greek for all the sense it made to me. It was definitely a language I didn't speak. He put it into patient-speak.
The Brain MRI results said that the previously seen lesion appears significantly less pronounced with no new lesions seen. Everything else is unchanged.
The PET Scan results said that a new area of interest is in the right upper lobe and it's minimally avid for activity. The changes at the right lung base are stable when they compare it to the last test but they're both worrisome.
My Oncologist doesn't think they're active. He thinks they're the result of my Radiation treatments. He also said that he has never had a patient with great lab numbers like mine with active cancer. I'm all for taking his opinion. I'm sure we'll have to keep an eye on those two areas for awhile. After all this isn't the common cold we're dealing with here.
With all these great doctors looking after me my only job is to eat healthy and have fun. So far I'm excelling at both. I'm excited about golfing in the 18 Hole League again and seeing all my friends. I have such a great support system. I don't know what I did to deserve such great friends.
