PET, Thrush, IGR, etc.

Lots of confusing terms, acronyms, scans, oncologists and information overload rounded out today's doctor visits. I will say the two oncologists that I met for the first time today were awesome. Cancer is not an easy topic to talk about especially when you are the one dealing with the disease. They both took the time to explain my particular tumor, the course of treatment (including the easy and hard parts) and really made me feel that I was in good hands.

The best part about today was the results of the PET scan (which by the way is much better than an MRI scan). The scan confirmed the cancer is isolated to my neck area and has not spread elsewhere!
