Got the results of the PET scan that was done on Monday, and it is GREAT! It's a two page report with lots of big $5 words. The layman's interpretation, for people like me, is that the lymphoma below my jaw is completely gone. Also, other areas in my chest and abdomen that previously showed signs of possible lymphoma activity are clear. That is the best PET scan result since this whole thing started 5 years ago. This Bexxar stuff is pretty cool.
Brother Mark took another picture of me after Bexxar. Here's the link to it: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v446/Arrowheaded/Resized_Fish_Jan_2007_016_S.jpg
I can't figure out how to hyperlink to it, so you'll probably have to copy that line and paste it in a browser to see the picture.
Still feeling kind of fatigued and the doctors are still watching my blood counts closely. That's a pretty good trade off, though, for this kind of result.

Hi Scott:
wow1 What a wonderful PET scan report. We are so happy and releived that it came back clear. Now if your blood counts don't go to low. Is the Bexxar treatment a new treatment? Keep up the hard fight and hope the fatigue goes away soon.
Love you guys alot and are so happy this treatment worked.

Bexxar was approved for this kind of treatment about 3 years ago, roughly the same time as the stem cell transplant I had. The doctors were not as confident at that time about Bexxar so we opted for the SCT.
Scott and Teresa,
