I just came from Dr. Hui's office and I have some good news, my numbers are down! Recently, they'd gone from the 60's, to the 70's, to 142. Today my cancer count was at 84!! That was so exciting, I nearly jumped off the table. She said that we don't need to do scans for awhile because she already knows that my numbers are going down and that it was unnecessary to do them right now. She also was happy to hear that my vomiting had decreased a lot and that it was almost under control. She didn't really have any more advice on that subject, just to keep doing what I was doing.
I think I forgot to mention that on my last visit I asked about surgery once again and she said that they won't be doing any surgery on me, that at this stage in the game they felt it was unnecessary. I don't know how that made me feel, but at least now I know for sure that it's not going to happen.
Monica came to chemo today and it was so good to see her. My chemo is only an hour now and so she got there right at the very end of my treatment, so we went to lunch and caught up. I sure love her, and it's been a long time since we've seen each other. Way too long!!
Peace to you all ♥ Love, Genie

This is great news Genie! AWESOME NEWS! I'm so excited for you. I know how scary the last few weeks must have been not knowing how the radiation worked and if stopping chemo for a short while would increase your numbers. What a relief and what a great day. I'm glad you're keeping your food down too.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry I missed chemo today. I hope to see you next week! I was visiting Tina M., who just had another reconstruction surgery. She's doing good and has two new smaller saline friends.
You deserved good news!!
I miss you!
