Hi @Joley and boy_boy
Yes a huge waiting game. I think you just have to accept it and follow the process otherwise it does your head in. There are reasons for this.
I am also in the same boat but a little further on. Even the surgery is an investigative process.
In regards to the Optima trial, do your research. I am too high risk of the cancer returning as it was in 3 of 4 lymph nodes. However I did not want to risk it regardless.
Get some prior knowledge so you have an understanding before you see the Oncologist. Although I know it is so much.
All the best with the Petscan results.
Take care
