Hey Barb... I have heard that a different scanner can result in a different suv just as you say. If it is the same spot as always, that is even more reason not to worry. Meanwhile, go for the xanax.

Wow Lily, what an ordeal that turned out to be. I hope you get well soon and don't have to go back.

[Late update]

Hi Bobbie. If you are feeling good, that is always a good sign that the chemo may be working. I just had to have a tooth extraction, but they said I could continue taking my tarceva. I will eventually have to do do a root canal, but I am going to put it off as long as it does not hurt. I hope you continue to feel good and can enjoy this short break.
