There are still hazy, slightly brighter spots around the newest ablation site, above the liver and slightly above the diaphragm. The options for the spots remain: recurring tumor, infection, or scar tissue/post-ablation tissue.
We told him what the Stanford doc said after reading the CT (wait for 3 months, then check again), and he actually agreed. We'll be sending a copy of the PET to Stanford just to make sure this is the right plan. For now, there won't be any biopsying. Just "watching and waiting."
Dan also got the go ahead for his hip replacement surgery. The official date for that is June 28th. I better put in the paperwork to get work off now!
This has also been a busy week for me from the fertility testing standpoint. All of our labs and scary tests were finished today. Thank goodness. The glucose test was like drinking a whole bunch of concentrated snow cone syrup. I didn't think it was too bad until I got home and had a crazy sugar crash. Whoa. As for the other tests, don't ask. I'm sitting with a heating pad and a constant stream of Advil. "For ze babies!" So far, results are looking alright, though we won't know for sure until we meet with the doctor. That appointment hasn't been made yet.
Alright, I think we're going to try to get off the couch long enough to grab some dinner. Thanks for all the prayers and well wishes!
Praises:
- Dan's PET scan didn't look crazy or all lit up!
- Dan's hip replacement is scheduled
- All of the fertility tests are done (for now)
Prayer Requests:
- A good plan from the fertility doctor
- No more cancer!
