      I went to the hospital to get a copy of the bone scan which was done on Tuesday of this week.  I wanted to know what it said.  From my Pet scan of July 23, 2014.  There was a suspected abnormal place near my pelvic area, and right mid thight, suspected place in the marrow.  which was why the bone scan was ordered.

      Today I picked up that report and it said no abnormal pelvic acitivy seen.  No abnormal femoral shaft activity.  Just a few places of degenerative disease( like knees, ankles, feet, and spine).  whichI think would be common in older age (58).  I am bery thankful and been thinking my God for the good news.  Now next week my visit to the Doctor to find out what he recommends at this time.

          wonderful news!  PETs – and any test – can yield false positives and it's really hard to keep calm when they do.
