Hello, I was recently suspected for pheochromocytoma by my cardiologist and was advised for the plasma test and 24 hr urine test for my uncontrolled blood pressure for the past 7 years. 4 years back the symptoms of anxiety and panic attacks began and it still continues even after taking antidepressants and anti-anxiety pills from psychiatrists. Subsequent to the higher metanephrine and normetanephrine counts in plasma test was referred for MIBG scan at Tata Hospital Mumbai which I did today. The text report shall be available on 21st January but was given a hard copy of the scan results which is enclosed along with blood report taken. Need your opinion if the MIBG report points out to the presence of tumor? If yes which body parts are likely affected as per the report? And are there chances that if tumor exists it could be cancerous?
