Continued good news

[StephN]

Hello everyone -
Thought I would post some happy news.

My last blood draw showed good results with all values in their normal range.

My HER2 ELISA serum marker was 7.5, same as last time a few months back.

I also had a bone scan this week, which showed negative for any bone mets or areas to relook at. It was a new machine since last time 4 years ago. The scanning is much clearer according to the tech.

Brain scan due end of next month.

So, I continue to hold my own without my Herceptin security blanket. And I feel stronger lately. Or maybe it is just the boost of an early spring here?

I am happy these important tests are all good. I can well understand that in the back of your mind you were still worried about having stopped Herceptin. Reading your post I had the feeling you were saying "you know what? I can fly!" .Congratulations Steph! Michka

Steph, that's great news! how fun when they have to get better and better scanners and STILL can't find anything!

Next month when they do the brain scan I'm sure they will find nothing there either:)

You know what I mean.

Thank you all.
I am busy getting ready to give a 50th birthday party for my "little" sister tomorrow.
Really wonderful to have the "git up and go" to do this. The food is mostly coming from a local French restaurant, but it is at my house.

Anyone else in Extreme Spring Cleaning mode? Either my eyesight has improved or my cleaning got sloppier this winter!

Steph, That is fantastic news! It actually put a smile on my face...now it's time for the happy dance so please don't watch. lol I had to laugh at Chrisy's reply about bringing in new scanners and they still can't find anything. Too funny! But actually...she makes a good point. YEAH!

It's always good to hear some really good news. That is one appt I would of been walking away from with a really BIG spring in my step. Big congrats! I don't know what your doing...but whatever it is don't change a thing. Posts like yours give so much hope to others. I am just thrilled for you. :)

Hi -
Chelee -
Very happy to hear fron YOU as well, dear friend. Being able to breathe makes a big difference, huh?

After my bone scan I did not know the result - got that a couple days later via e-mail. I figured if I did not have a phone call from my onc or her nurse with the first 36-48 hours, I was "in the clear."

And a lot of the time I don't know WHAT I am doing - just bouncing from task to task or resting in between. Still have some difficulty focusing at times.
