Hi Pegs
Sorry i can't help i've never heard of a PET scan before. Can't you ring the hospital/GP and ask them what it involves?
I'm sure it will be painless, as most scans are.
Please let us know if you find out any info, i will be thinking of you hun.

Hi Trish
I'm not afraid of the scan at all...have read up loads about it. Just nervous of the results....
I'm wondering if it picks up anything else, eg scar tissue, or only cancers. Or can hopefully eliminate those nasties....

I know how you feel Pegs i to hate waiting for results of any kind :(
Pegs, what does it involve? I'd be interested to know.

Hi again...Injection with radioactive glucose dye, which clings to particular types of cells. This show any sort of abnormalities happening in your body.
I am very lucky to have the chance, I think, as I don't think they hand them out too handily.
I am so sick of feeling drained from waiting for test results. This should provide a lot of answers, I hope.
