Have you ever had a PET-CT scan? Quick questionnaire.

[Fran_Benson]

Dr Ben Mulhearn who recently gave a talk at one of our PMRGCAuk Week webinars is conducting some research relating to PET-CT scans and looking for patient responses through a short questionnaire. If you can help him, please see below.

Have any of you ever had a PET-CT scan?

We have a very interested paper currently being written looking at PET-CT scans in GCA and PMR patients, and things on the scans which might be missed but may well be important.

If you could, would you be able to complete the following (VERY SHORT I PROMISE!) questionnaire for me?

Hi Petros - good to hear from you, How are you doing?

[Petros-1931 in reply to PMRpro]

Thanks, very well considering. I shall send a report after my rheumatologist draws conclusions at my next appointment Aug10th. His current thinking is 'eye stroke', possibly from a clot, and the need now to protect the good eye.

[Rugger]

Done. It will be interesting to read the results of the questionnaires.
