On today's member spotlight, Meet @travelgirl, a cancer survivor who pays it forward, helping others feel less alone. "I received two rare and unusual primary cancers one week apart. Having medical issues can be extremely frightening and very lonely at times. Mayo Clinic Connect helps patients overcome such fears."

Hello All:

As the PRRT treatment was approved earlier this year, I was wondering how many of our NET members have looked into this treatment or perhaps have had it. If so, I would enjoy hearing about the experience and how it went for you.

Also, I would be interested in knowing how many have had the 68Ga DOTATATE Positron Emission Tomography which is the latest diagnostic tool. If you have had it, what was your experience? Was it a helpful diagnostic tool for you and your medical team?

I hope you are all doing well. Will you drop me a note and let me know how you are doing?
