I wrote about a suspicious spot found during my regular cancer scan in this
post.
I’m happy to report I had it thoroughly investigated and it’s not a cancer recurrence.
Chain of events
- Went for a PET CT scan at SGH on 15 June. A PET CT scan is where they inject you with a radioactive isotope and lie down in a machine while it scans your entire body. Whole process took about a couple of hours and went pretty smoothly.
- Got results back and saw doctors at the National Cancer Centre (NCC) on 18 Jun. They said there was a suspicious spot on my prostrate and they would discuss it further at their tumour board next week.
- NCC doctors called me back on 25 Jun. They want to do an MRI scan. This provides a sharper picture of the spot on my prostrate. They thought the chance of tumour was 50%. A date for the MRI was set around three weeks later on 14 July.
