Thank you for giving us an update!!

Hi Lisa,
I was thinking of you all day yesterday and checked the website as soon as I arrived up in NH last night. I was so relieved to read your post. I hope they will find out what is bothering you soon.
Best regards,
Barbara H.

Yeah!

Lisa, I AM SO HAPPY about stable disease for you. I pray for you all the time and I would hope that you would always ask for more when you need it. I'll be curious to hear the gall bladder results.

I had had a lot of weird belly pain and discomfort when I was having progression and when I wasn't some too. I felt much better after I read in a e-newsletter from Cancer Consultants that just having been subjected to so much chemo can mess up the digestive system in wacky ways. Miraculously, I have felt better since I read it.

Also, you may already know this, UCHSC is now an EAP site for Tykerb-720.848.0630, Megan is the gal to talk to.

Glad to hear things are looking up. My intuition is seldom wrong too, but it has been maybe once or twice. Hope the news gets better and better. You really do deserve a good break right about now. Best wishes, BB
