PET scan today

Had another PET & CT scan done this morning at St. Mary's hospital. Glad it's over with. The PET scan alone, takes 1 1/2 hours. They inject me with a radioactive tracer substance that is in a scary looking, metal, incapsulated syringe. It has to circulate thru my body for 45 minutes before they can take the scan. The pet scan lasts about 30 minutes. The ct scan was much shorter.
Anyway, I should know the results tomorrow. Naturally I'm a bit scared, but overall I think it will be good news. I sure hope so anyway.

It's been 8 weeks since my last ct scan, 11 weeks since my last radiation & 14 weeks since chemo.
Please help me pray that it's good news tomorrow.
