Hello -
We have some more scan results. The bone marrows are clean. The MIBG is complicated but I will try to explain. The previous MIBG scans were done in New York and were not available for comparison. These previous scans have always shown some uptake near the right kidney which the doctors in New York do not feel is disease. So - until the doctors in New York can compare the two we cannot be assured nothing is going on but since the CAT scan was clean it is unlikely there is anything there.
Luke and I knew that by getting the scans done here we would likely run into some uncertainty in interpreting. We decided it was worth it. Had we done them in New York we probably wouldn't even have any questions about it. As it is it leaves me a little concerned but I am feeling confidant that this is the same area described previously and does not represent cancer.
We are still waiting for the Urine test results.
I hope to be in contact with the doctor in New York in the near future and have him explain the MIBG.
