If You're Looking For Me In The Next Month Or So + Info

Note the San Francisco skyline in the detail of my

Just had a chat with Dr. Tavakoli.

He said there was some concern about my lungs from what showed up on CT scan (also could be nothing). So they still want to do the PET scan in May, which by the way is 'labeled glucose', whereas the bone scan is 'labeled phosphorus'. Anyway, if there is disease progression, there will likely be 18 weeks of chemo. If there is nothing, no chemo, and things will just need monitoring, what kind of monitoring and how often will have to be determined.

Otherwise here is my medical/retreat/misc. schedule!

April 10, acupuncture
April 13-May 2, Order retreat followed by solitary retreat at Lake County house
May 3, SF dentist & haircut
May 4-11ish, The OC
May 13-20, Spirit Rock meditation retreat
May 30, PET scan
June 16-24, SFBC Summer retreat
July 4, Montana?
