Tumor slightly larger

Postby Guest T » Thu May 27, 2010 3:51 pm

We went to my husbands primary Dr. today. He explained the CT scan to us. Its all OK just that the tumor is still there slightly larger then it was in Dec. even after the surgery. He seems to be handling it OK. I wanted to cry on the way home but I don't want to make him feel bad. So the plan now is to wait and scan again in 3 mos. If needed he hasn't tried erbitux yet. Dose that get rid of a tumor? Anyway there is not much more to say. It's just so hard to believe. My heart is broken.
