ALL CLEAR

Dr. Motzer says my scan results are what you’d hope to see, and no surgery or further chemo is required.

He recommended another ct/pet is 3-4 months for the armpit but felt the chemo just irritated the lymph nodes.

More later….

Big Day

(11:18 AM EDT) On the 11:17 to GCT for my chemo results.

(Update 12:29 PM EDT) Arrived New York, walking to 68th & York.

(Update 01:28 PM EDT) Waiting, relaxed.  Resigned to my fate. Waiting room is relatively empty. Could cancer be on vacation?

(Update 01:49 PM EDT) Waiting now in an exam room. Suddenly a bit nervous.

(Update 03:16 PM EDT) Lymph node is now 0.8 cm by 0.8 cm (1.0 cm is normal) with no abnormal sugar uptake. Previously the tumor was absorbing 6X what normal tissue requires, to fuel its growth. (All this info is only from the ct and pet report. We haven’t seen motzer). I did have some enlarged lymph nodes in my neck and armpit, but they don’t look cancerous. So far good news but we’re waiting for motzer’s opinion.
