Our regular oncologist was away so we saw another
member of his practice today who gave us feedback on the current MRI, done
9/20/13. The bottom line is that there
has been significant progression (growths) in the brain since the last MRI at
the beginning of August.Some of the abnormalities have grown and a couple new
ones appeared. Thankfully there is not a
massive lump like the first beastie a couple of years ago.We have stopped the
medical therapy (Avastin) as it had not done its job well enough. What to do next is still up in the air
pending discussions with my neurosurgeon and my regular oncologist. We have recently learned of some very
interesting therapies at Duke and MD
Anderson, but don’t know that they could be expected to apply to my case or
not. We’ll see. I’ll just keep truckin’ along feeling
reasonably good. Next MRI probably in a
couple months. We're hanging in here ok and still of good spirits, as i hope you are too.Will let u know if we learn any thing of substance.
