Tumor is Back?

Mystery is mounting. Although I have a spot in my bone marrow without cancer, for the first time in several months I feel pain in my right shoulder again.  This was the location of the tumor that alerted me to the cancer in the first place.  In the past, the amount of pain correlated with the size of the tumor.

Fortunately, I have a PET scan scheduled for Monday morning. They will give me the results of the scan on Tuesday morning. That scan identifies tumors. Good news or bad, I'll pass it on this coming Tuesday.  Otherwise, I feel great and anxious to come home.

In other pressing news, my hair is growing rapidly.  My eyebrows look like willow bushes, my eyelashes are the envy of the female medical staff and I may have to invest in a comb within a week or two.
