What's up now, doctor?

As I write today is Wednesday, June 27, 2012.  Last Wednesday I had an appointment with a Radiology oncologist (Dr. Drooz).  After reviewing my last 2 PET scans, he agreed with my gall bladder surgeon and oncologist who's been treating me for 26 months that I was a candidate for Radiation by injecting radioactive beads into my liver. The beads attack the lesions on my liver and do not harm the good cells.  He explained that first he would do mapping of my liver/blood vessels.  Then I would have 2 bead treatments 2 - 4 weeks apart, depending on how I fair following the first treatment.  Thursday his assistant phoned that I needed to go to a radiation oncologist and she'd made me an appointment for Monday, 6/25.  Dr. Kanani saw me Monday and again agreed with the beading procedure.  He would personally do the first treatment, following the mapping done by Dr. Drooz.  Tueday 6/26 Dr. Drooz's nurse phoned that there was an opening for me to have my mapping done Thursday 6/28 if I could have a pre-op done TODAY 6/27.  Hampton drove me to the INOVA location near Prosperity Rd in Fairfax at 6:15 AM this morning for blood work & EKG.  We were completely finished by 7:35.  Now we get to travel the same route tomorrow then proceed to Fairfax Hospital, being there by 7:00 AM Thursday.  The mapping is a full day procedure.  I fast from midnight until it is FINISHED.  I will be in la la land, according to the nurse.

4th PET Scan & recommendations

Thursday, June 7, 2012, I had a 4th PET Scan.  Dr. Richard Brenner, the surgeon who removed my gall bladder and biliary tube & bag, and Dr. Nassar Khan, my oncologist, each recommended this following seeing the photographs taken during the surgery.   Monday, June 11, 2012, I went to Dr. Khan to get the results of the PET.  He verbally reported to me that I was experiencing activity in my lungs and liver.  He recommended I have an appointment with a radiologist, Dr. Alan Drooz.  It is now set for Wednesday, June 20, 2012.   Both Dr. Brenner and Dr. Khan had expressed that they did not see an immenent problem.   Not being one to sit around and wonder what problems I am experiencing, I made the suggested appointment.  THEN, I read the printout of the PET Scan which the receptionist handed me as I left the office.  It plainly states in 2 places "the lungs are clear."  I have spent the past 2 days questioning people as to what kind of problem this indicates.  I understand the radiologist will check this next Wednesday but I am puzzled NOW.
