@tomrennie I hope I'm not posting twice, this site confuses me a bit. Yes it makes perfect sense to assemble a care team should the need arise, and I'm researching doctors and facilities, Mayo among them. Right now we are still on hold until the tumor is large enough to biopsy or shows as cancer on the MRI. The PET/CT radioactive shot was FDG, a tracer. I also had a nuclear bone scan, which used Tc-99m MDP. I trust my doctor and her NP, but can't help but wonder if there's a more definitive answer out there or a different angle to come at this from. Am I really the only one with this particular set of lab/scan results? Maybe there are studies out there. If not, then someone should be writing me up. It sounds like you've been through a lot. I'm amazed at the stories I'm reading.
