Teresa,
Carcinoid has been one of the many things I have thought about. I have had a PET scan, and Octerotide scan. In addition I have had Upper GI, and colonoscopy which didn't so anything.

May I ask what tests you had done that was able to identify your Carcinoid?

Probably a Ga-68 PET/CT and if detected, a biopsy?

I have had a 111IN-Octreotide in 2013, and in 2014 a F-18 FDG PET/CT of the chest. They showed a abnormality in the area of the tonsils and but felt this was nothing related or to be concerned about. Reports along with others also show a calcified area in my lung, but again the doctors felt there was nothing to worry about and it was not a problem.
