The PET Scan Results Show

  The results of the PET scan were inconclusive. The only anomaly detected was a solitary lymph node in my chest near the heart. From what my oncologist says, it doesn't look like the return of colon cancer. Colon cancer would have affected more than one lymph node and those nodes would be located in the abdomen not the chest cavity. A biopsy has been scheduled for Jan. 19th. The biopsy results should provide the answer as to what's inflaming the node.

  One other oddity was revealed by the scan. It seems that my right testicle is larger and firmer than my left testicle. I was aware of this particular issue for quite some time but didn't address it because, other than the size difference, nothing unusual was occurring there. An ultrasound has been scheduled  on Jan. 26th in order to determine what's going on down there. I'm not entirely sure what to expect when I get the results.
