PET Scan Tomorrow

The PET Scan is tomorrow. I’ll meet with a dietician some time next week to discuss when the feeding tube is to be installed (required) and what type of food is to be used. I’m 5’10” and weigh 160 Lbs. I’m in great shape. I ran a mountain 5K race while at Scout Camp at 7000’ elevation in 22:58 (good for me as I don’t run but once a year) and I normally climb at least one 14K mountain each summer. I’m lean as can be and going into Chemotherapy and Radiation that’s a very bad thing. I’ve been told to eat as many good foods as possible and try to bulk up. It’s not easy when your throat hurts to talk and even more when eating. I’m working on coming up with a better list of soft foods and protein “bulk up” additives.
