HI EVERYONE,
WELL 2 WEEKS AGO I HAD CT SCAN WHICH SHOWED 50 TO 70% SHRINKAGE IN MY ALREADY SMALL 3 LIVER METS. WELL PET SCAN RESULTS YESTERDAY ARE ALL CLEAR NOTHING ON MY LIVER LIT UP, AND THEY SAY CAT SCAN STUFF IS RESIDUAL CANCER WHATEVER THAT MEANS, BUT ACCORDING TO PET SCAN THE AREAS ARE NOT ACTIVE. I STILL AM GOING TO SLOAN TO SEE ABOUT REMOVING THE AREA WHERE THOSE LITTLE TURDS WERE LIVING ON MY LIVER, AND ALL OF THIS CAME ABOUT AFTER ONLY 5 CHEMOS. JUST GETTING UNPLUGGED THIS A.M. FROM MY 6TH CHEMO. SO NO ONE OUT THERE GIVE UP HOPE CAUSE GOOD THINGS DO HAPPEN, BACK IN JULY I FELT DOOMED NOW DOCS SAY EVEN THOUGH I WENT TO STAGE 4 I HAVE A GREAT CHANCE OF BEATING THIS CRAP BECAUSE METS WERE FOUND EARLY BECAUSE I HAD A HYSTERECTOMY NOT TOO LONG AGO AND CT SCAN FOR THAT SHOWED NOTHING ON LIVER SO METS HAD JUST RECENTLY POPPED UP. AND SINCE I HAD SUCH GOOD RESPONSE ON LIVER THEY SAY THE MICRO STUFF IN MY BLOOD HAS ALSO BEEN EFFECTED BY CHEMO. YIPPY!!!! I THINK I WILL GO TO DISNEY WORLD TO CELEBRATE. I KNOW I STILL HAVE A FIGHT AHEAD OF ME AND I KNOW THERE IS A GOOD POSSIBLILTY THE CRAP MIGHT COME BACK BUT I WILL DEAL WITH THAT WHEN AND IF IT HAPPENS I AM GOING TO TRY TO NOT THINK ABOUT IT AND CONCENTRATE ON RAISING MY 7 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER. THEY SAY AFTER SURGERY MORE CHEMO BUT I CAN DEAL WITH THAT, I USED TO CUSS AT MY LITTLE CHEMO BUDDY STRAPPED TO MY SIDE BUT NOW IM GLAD I HAD TO BE INCONVENIENCED FOR 3 DAYS EVERYOTHER WEEK.
