Lisa's been having some leg pain in her right hip area. This had been an early area of concern because a "hot spot" had shown up there on the PET/CT scan done in late January, but then follow up scans showed no change so it was presumed not to be a spread of the cancer, and probably just an old injury or arthritis. Of course, now that there's a bit of pain there, it's a concern, but it could also just be an arthritis flare. This is something that will automatically get checked in the scan set up for September 20th.

That's a problem with having had cancer... it's easy to stress about every new ache and pain.
