PET scan

 Yet another PET scan! I was hoping to go for two years in between but Dr Ujjani wanted to make sure the shortness of breath I have been experiencing is not due to lymphoma. 

The patient summary says: 

History of follicular lymphoma diagnosed in 2013, treated with rituximab with good response. In 2021, developed high-grade transformation (double-hit lymphoma) with bulky retroperitoneal and nodal disease, treated with R-CHOP followed by dose-adjusted R-EPOCH, achieving complete response.

Now I have to wait for the result on MyChart or the TeleHealth appointment. I'm not worried because I think it's due to weight gain...or a heart problem, more worrisome.  

There is a cardiologist visit in my future!
