P.E.T. Update

Darell found out today that his doctor has requested his PET be done now rather then wait till March. He didn't know why so he went into the doctors office which of coarse they wouldn't tell him why. Dr McCroskey called when Darell was getting in the shower so I talked with him. I was a little shocked that Darell's blood work from his last visit 4 weeks ago came back flagged with something being off/not right. No one called us about this. Instead they just ordered the test but did not follow through to make sure the appointment had be setup. This is frustrating they didn't tell us something was wrong and that they dropped the ball getting his scan scheduled. Not acceptable. Anyway tomorrow we will know when he will have the scan this week or early next week. I talked with his doctor about his cough that is not getting better. It should be gone. The doctor again told me that his chest x-ray was clear. Now I wonder what is causing this cough. I hope I am not being paranoid. It could be from his chemo treatments. Hopefully we will know what is going on and if something is going on what we are going to do about it.
