4 years ago today I found out I was in remission! I do a small tumor on my other lung now, but it is growing very slowly and they are watching it. I had a PET scan awhile ago and there was no cancer yet! I have had many things start to go haywire since having cancer and next week, I have to have a liver biopsy. So far, even with all my many other symptoms, they have found no cancer! God is good!

On October 3rd, they told me the test results of my latest PET scan. They said the tumors have shrunk to almost nothing and the metabolic activity has gone from 8-12 down to 1 1/2 to 2 1/2. They will retest me on December 3rd with a chest xray. They said the metabolic activity is so low that it could be the residual radiation, rather than the cancer. My question is: Does this mean I am cured, or could it come back again?
