Today, Friday December 19, Michelle had her first PET/CT scan. This is a whole-body diagnostic scan which enables detection of cancer anywhere in the body. The oncologists are waiting for the results of this test (to identify any spread of the cancer) to finalize the treatment plan and set a schedule. Our next oncology appointment is Tuesday, 12/22.
After the PET scan we visited out Internist and tested Michelle's oxygen levels. Everything seems back to normal, so the doctor said she can discontinue the oxygen, but keep it around for the weekend in case she has problems.
