On Thursday, September 16th at 9.30 I have to be at the Christie for the PET scan. The following Tuesday, that's the 21st, I have to see Dr. B at Wythenshawe in the Northwest London apartment.
For those who have never heard of a caps PET scan here's a clue
http://www.cancerhelp.org.uk/about-cancer/tests/pet-scan
I am not allowed to have anything to eat and only water to drink for six hours before I have a scan. I gather they will inject me with some mildly radioactive substance so that it shows up all the details when the scan is done. It said there are no after-effects so I hope they're right. Anyway it'll be good to get the results on the 21st because the one thing I need now is some certainty. I am sick of "maybe this" or "maybe that".
Even if the worst is true and the nodules are cancerous at least they have found them early and hopefully early enough so that they can deal with them.
