I just wanted to tell you all that have sent me best wishes a massive thanks.
I had my PET scan yesterday and what a really boring 5 hours that was. I had the results this morning and they have seen no spread of any cancer or any other cancer detected. They have however seen something in my bowel and I am to have a rectal camera test next week, which believe me I am more petrified of than the lung camera. She (My Consultant) seems to think it could be a colic which can be easily cured if I heard her correctly but she does not seem to think it is a cancer.
Good news or what folks.

Gosh Alun they really are giving you a good MOT aren’t they. Very reassuring that your consultant doesn’t think it is cancer, but she is right to do the test to rule it out , tick all the box’s.
Good luck, hopefully you will start to feel like things will get back to some normality for you soon.
I would rather that test than the one down the throat.
It is painless, though bit embarrassing but they are very good and do make you fill at ease, seen it all before.

Polyp makes perfect sense
They are quite common I think, and easy to remove.
