Well first thing I found out when getting to Chicago was when you have lung cancer breathing dry frozen 4 degree air is hard at best. I had several coughing fits when outside (what fun). Anyway, had my CT and PET scans yesterday, had my team meetings today. Team meetings are when you discuss the results of your scans with your Dr., Naturopathist, Nutritionist, and Care Management.
So, yes my cancer has grown, however, it has not grown past the point when I was diagnosed back last May. So, when I went to the hospital they didn’t have anything to compare they’re CT scan with so they saw what they thought to be out of control cancer.
I can’t say how relieved I am to have had the chance to talk to MY oncologist at CTCA. He explained everything in detail. I am back to my old funny self, I have such a piece of mind (ahhhhh). Ok real quick, he has me back on infused chemo (Alimta), every 3 weeks, indefinitely. We will do scans after the 4th cycle. So tomorrow we fly back home, have to get up very early, so I’ll add more later.
God Bless and love to you all!
