I had my 3 month follow up pet scan yesterday. I didn't have much scanxiety, anxiety about the results of the scan. I had been feeling good and almost pain free for two full months. That's until this last Sunday when I started having horrible back pain. I was so worried the pet scan was going to show progression in my spinal tumor since I was having 10-11 levels of pain on a scale from 1-10.

Well, I found out I'm NED!!!!!! No evidence of disease!!!!!! All the tumors and nodules in my lungs and spine are GONE!!!! And it's either a pulled or strained muscle in my back near the location of my spinal radiation. I've never been so excited about back pain before.
It's surreal. I was in shock. My cheeks hurt last night from smiling so much yesterday. It's been a day since finding out and I don't think it's totally sunk in yet.

I'm so very thankful for the prayers, love and support I've received from around the world. I seriously believe that the prayer requests and positive energy that surrounds me are the reasons I'm considered NED within 9 months of my initial diagnosis. Truly amazing!!!!!!
