Results on my PET scan. Can someone help me out? I am getting a PET scan tomorrow at 1:30 because my CAT scan showed 2 Nogules on one of my lungs. Can someone please tell me how soon after it, can I get my results and who do I get the results from? I am a smoker and I have COPD. I am on Oxygen 24/7.
Tularemia is a serious infectious disease caused by the intracellular bacterium Francisella tularensis. It causes fever, and sometimes ulceration at the site of entry and/or swelling of nearby lymph nodes. It can cause severe pneumonia.
Symptoms of Tularemia. Different types of tularemia affect different parts of the body (such as the eyes, throat, or lungs) and thus cause different symptoms. Symptoms usually appear 2 to 4 days after exposure to the bacteria but can take up to 10 days. Sores may develop near the scratch or bite that started the infection.
