I have zero experience with any of those choices, but it seems like #2 would be the way to go? I am imagining that thing that they put in cows for bloat....

Hope things get better for yall soon!

Well that just sounds like total bullshit.

Are you doing as well as can be expected? Kids okay?

Thanks yall! Just got back from seeing the oncologist and surgeon, everything is just fine! Labs look fantastic, CEA is stable at 2.2.

Colonoscopy will be at the end of July or beginning of August and I don't get another CT until September.

I'm digging this surveillance protocol.

Results came in Friday night to mychart. No evidence of recurrence. I love having all my insides described as unremarkable. :lol: Labs and appointment on Wednesday, not expecting anything out of the ordinary there. I'm almost 6 full months out from my last treatment. Hair has grown back, most of the...

Gawd. You've had to deal with so much!

How are other things in your life going? Are you guys all stuck in the house? Rationing toilet paper?

Hang in there.

Oh my goodness. I had no idea. I'm actually at a loss for words.

Met him today, he's simply lovely. I liked him even more when he told me my CEA was 1.5 :shock: That's a new low! See him again in 3 months. He said he likes to see everyone on a 3 month schedule for the first two years, then every six months for two years. He estimated I'd live to see 75. :lol: I'm...

That’s so awesome, congrats! Were you nervous leading up to it?? Thanks yall! No, I honestly had zero worries about this scan. I figured if anything showed up, there were two things I could do about it: Jack and Shit. :lol: I feel great. It's simply a privilege to be walking around upright and I'm ...

Last chemo was 12/23. Everything looks fine. Labs and meeting my new oncologist next Wednesday.

So far, so good!

Shit. This was supposed to be an all clear update! I know you have to be freaking the hell out right now. I have absolutley no experience with what you're having to deal with, and I have no idea if that qualities as a significant growth or something that's still under control that can be shrunk with...

I hope you're feeling a little better! Can't wait to see your "all clear" update

I'm so sorry you're struggling. I really hope you get your turn soon. I can totally understand where you're coming from and I think your feelings are 100% justified.

Keep going, you're doing fabulous!

That's just so neat! We have 5 dogs, 3 GSD and two lord knows what mixes. Combined, it's 400lbs of dog!! I think two of our shepherds would really excel at something like flyball but we live in the middle of nowhere.

Keep on trucking, you'll be finished before you know it.

Any updates?

Hope you recover quickly!

Just adding to the list of folks that bled while on Avastin. Mine was a constant bloody nose.

Hope you both ate doing well!
