Latest Results

Even though I had been off the mystery drug for 11 days in September and 12 days in October the CT results were good. This time there was another 10% shrinkage in most of the tumors and adding that to the shrinkage from the August Scan results makes it 30%. Also I had been on a lower dose of the drug since mid September.

The first time they lowered my dose of the drug it went to 60 mg. When the feet were better this time they lowered the dose to 39 mg. Hopefully this is the dose that will shrink my tumors but not cause the feet to get those painful "blisters".

My feet are still healing but there's no pain involved. I've been able to return to all my activities like exercise classes, golf and shopping.

I'm off now to spend some time with my grandson.
