So you've had a CT with contrast and a 9mm mass was found in or near your small intestine? You may or may not be a candidate for surgery. I suspect you'll next want a PET scan and/or a biopsy (if possible) to help determine what the mass is. I assume you've been having symptoms for a while? If NETs is what you have, then there are NETs specialist that can help you. Good luck.

I've already had the gallium PET scan. It was negative.
Blood tests are up and down. Many other symptoms. The referral to the surgeon has been in for 2 weeks.
The tumor is smack dab in the middle, in my Si. I'm in Ontario Canada. I think the plan is to just remove it with a resection. I've been symptomatic for several years now
