@tomrennie The scan went fine. Staff at Mayo are the best.

I was blown away by the results. Moderate uptake for the tumor at the ileocecal valve, where this was all first discovered. No uptake anywhere else. I could NOT believe it. After well over a year of the diarrhea, and other symptoms too. Were they all a coincidence? Or is it functioning there all by itself? I don't know. I will be getting Chromogranin A and 5-HIP whatever urine (confusing it with HiPAA) soon.

I realize this doesn't mean there aren't tiny tumors too small to show on the PET. And that staging probably won't occur until after surgery. And that I haven't heard from the doctor yet (in a week I meet with the surgical oncologist).

Still, I feel incredibly, ridiculously fortunate at this point in time. I wish very good fortune for all of you, too, in whatever way that might present itself!
