Re: Need input!

Yesterday I started new immunotherapy drug trial.
Also got CT report -
Brain - OK!
Liver - lesion grown 1.2 cm in a few weeks! A bit concerned about that.
Fortunately only change is in liver and it is in exactly the same spot as 4 years ago.

Thought I was off treatment too long but met another Lady waiting to start same trial who has been off treatment since beginning of January. She can't start trial for another 1 to 2 weeks!

Started at 12 - got out at 5 pm. No idea if given placebo or immuno drug. Had a bit of tightness in forehead and lower back when 1st drug given but that was all.

New oncologist questioned me about right hip as Ct report went into great detail about "hip fracture" Apparently 2 radiologists studied the scan. Had to give him whole scenario of last years panic. That was good enough for him. He couldn't understand how if I had major problem with hip I was not in pain or limping!
So far today- feel fine. Long may it last!
