ernrol Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 Good news, not the best but good. The spot on my hip that had an uptake of 6.5 now has a reduced uptake of 5.9. It has not increased in size. It is a subtle 6mm lesion. My oncologist said that he can’t say that it isn’t cancer and he can’t say that is cancer. He said that it does not act like cancer and that it is too small to do a biopsy. If it was cancer one would think that it would have gotten bigger. So less uptake is good or should I say positive. Check up in 6 weeks another scan in 3 months. How boring life would be if I did not have something to watch Thanks for all the prayers. Stay positive, Ernie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trish2418 Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 Hi Ernie, I wish cancer could have been ruled out definitively, but no growth and decreased uptake is good! Keep us posted. Trish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kasey Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 I think this is GOOD, indeed, Ernie! I will be anxiously awaiting the results of the 6 week scan so I know cancer is ruled out 100%. Thanks for reporting in promptly. I get to worrying about everybody, ya know? Kasey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connie B Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 Sounds like GREAT NEWS to me Ernie. If that little bugger just wants to sit and hang out and do NOTHING, then that's doable. Kind of like my lung nodule that has been sitting doing nothing for over 4 years now. It's Another Great Day To Be Alive! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
