Hi @hopeful33250 and thanks for reaching out.
I went to the hospital on August 30th with a bad stomach ache and suspected appendicitis. After a CT scan they let me know I had a bowel blockage. They ended up taking me into surgery to discover what the blockage was and discovered two tumors - 3.9 cm tumor in my small intestine (ilium) and a 1.1 cm tumor in my omentum. I have recovered from the surgery and had my PET scan on Monday. While I haven't met with the oncologist yet, my scan results were posted to my EMR and I was able to see that I have two more tumors, the largest is 8 cm and in my thorax next to my aorta. This is my layman's reading of the radiologist's report.
