All treats, no tricks!

I received the results from my CT scan this past Monday (yes, I had it during the storm)- in medicalese: Interval decrease in the size of hepatic metastases. There is no evidence of new metastatic disease. Translated: no spread, no new growths, and the existing tumors have all shrunk in size. Appreciably so, by half or more since my last scan the end of August. My oncologist was truly pleased; she said this was one of the best responses she has seen with this regimen, in terms of the amount of shrinkage as well as how quickly. My oncology nurse was similarly pleased. As was/am I.

Relentless Optimism!
