Staging

Where my previous doctors had stepped out and both declared me stage II B, Dr. Miller says there isn't enough information to say a stage for sure. He said he was more interested in making the right decision than a quick one. My uneducated opinion is that my previous doctors have made decisions based on percentages and trends and Dr. Miller needs more physical evidence weighted with those percentages and trends.

Everything I knew before is null and void. I haven't been staged yet and my treatment path is unknown.
My goal is to get my PET scan done before the end of the day Friday.

I've been counting out going on a company trip to Florida in early March. I just might be able to go. I know, I need to not get my hopes too high, but its possible that this will all be over sooner than later. If it's not than I'm informed and prepared as anyone can be.

all you can do is keep a positive mind set. Book your trip and purchase trip insurance.
