I know these cancer updates are pretty mundane, but I promise they'll stop eventually - you know, once I've kicked it! Saw Dr. Bonomi today. He took a look at the PET scan and didn't think the mediastinum activity was healing. The suspicious activity is very telling of "metastatic lymphadenopathy" which is a cool way of saying my cancer has moved into my lymph nodes. This is something we already knew but based on this, my cancer is stage IIIb. The lack of activity in my right lung is what is keeping from being stage IV even though cancer cells are probably coarsing their way through my body as we speak. Still very curable and that is something to keep my sights on.
