I am scheduled for my first Gallium-68 today (another Pancreastatin test came back high and symptoms increasing). Hoping they find actual tumors. If not, my doc still plans to start me on Lanreotide next week. Aetna is being helpful as ever (NOT!) in trying to deny the preauth for the scan since Gallium plus PET scan doesn't make sense to their protocols. This is such a frustrating disease!

@jenchaney727 Hi Jen: I was just reviewing some of the posts in the NET group and noticed that you were scheduled for a Gallium-68 in March. Would you care to share anything about that experience? I hope that all is going well for you and with your Lanreotide treatment. Best wishes. Teresa
