You have likely already read these, but here are links to two studies involving PSMA PET/CT vs PSMA MRI and mp MRI.

No, I did not see it. THANKS so much for the link. I printed it immediately , I am making binder with all documentation and references etc.., makes me feel like I am "doing something" productive - this waiting period drives me nuts *sigh. No place around had scanning sooner than what we initially had (mid April), bigger university hospitals had even longer periods of wait so it is what it is ...
Once more, thanks for helping and for remembering me < 3
The binder is a great idea! With so much information coming from so many sources, having hard copies to organize should prove to be very helpful! I can tell your take on the hurry up and wait delay for appointments from the "sighs," but how is your husband doing wth it?
We look forward to following your updates. While hoping for a cure but regardless of the post treatment outcome, with the knowledge you two are accumulating through research coupled with a strong sciences background and the "joie de vivre" which shines through in the bits you have shared about the two of you, you two have got this!
