[QUOTE="wes, post: 2701103, member: 3"] Good news / bad news today The site of the original tumor showed “ thickening” which indicates new growth in that location. The new tumor discovered last month hasn’t shrunk but it hadn’t grown. That means the chemo drug used in the last cycle isn’t working so we bring out the heavy artillety, IV’s. In the next week to ten days, I’ll have a medical port implanted in my chest to allow easy access for the IV’s. Some of the veins in my arm have taken a beating so the port will be easier Blood counts are down a little but still in the acceptable range so she’s not concerned about it. She ran everything past the neuro surgeon and he felt that he could remove a lot of what’s going on but we’ll hold off on surgery for now. One brain surgery in a lifetime is plenty for me but if I have to, then I have to. MD Anderson is back in the picture so wheels are in motion to start that process again. Another option is Optune. Google it if you get bored. I’ve seen them at her office and it looks like you have a vacuum cleaner hose attached to your head. Plus you have to shave your head daily and wear the darned thing 16-18 hours per day. Not terribly crazy about that one but if I have to,, I have to We still have options and that’s great. My doc is aggressively going after this stuff and I like that That’s all for now Thanks for your love and support Send Bourbon ( I’m kidding ) [/QUOTE]
