Questions about bone scan

I've been trying to find the message in here that said that not all "hot spots" were to be worried about, but I can't find it anywhere...I wanted to print it for Curtis...also something about PSA less than 20 there usually isn't bone cancer.

Someone please help!!

Hi, Wicket. We were one of the ones talking about that. Husb. had hot spots on a rib and in the neck. They insisted he had injured the rib somewhere along the way, although there was no recollection of that. The neck had caused some pain (with bone spurs) many years ago and he had undergone cortisone injections for that. They also took additional, extensive X-rays of those areas, which scared us.

Those are not areas where pc usually finds a spot to spread, although I can't remember what I read about where it does normally go when it gets into bone. I'm sure someone else here will know. You have nothing to worry about at this point, especially since you know this is an existing "pain" spot. We drove ourselves crazy for two days waiting for the urologist's appointment. If I run across that info, I'll be back.
