The doctor doesn't think a PET scan is necessary (I asked). The last PET scan I had was in May and it had a lot of hot spots on it becasue I was still healing from my colon resection. For some reason, the doctor doesn't think a PET scan is what I need now. Thanks for putting my mind at ease about the spots.
Spironolactone and acne have always been looked upon as a favorable combination. In other words, Spironolactone is often used by dermatologists to treat acne . Spironolactone belongs to the class of drugs known as antiandrogens. Antiandrogens are hormone inhibitors.
Spironolactone, the first member of the class, is also used in the management of hyperaldosteronism (including Conn's syndrome) and female hirsutism (due to additional antiandrogen actions). Most antimineralocorticoids, including spironolactone, are steroidal spirolactones.
