Irene, that sounds good to me. I have been thinking about you and was going to e-mail you. I know how you feel when its not clear cut for us. At least, nothing is showing any where else and possible one less tumor. I am experiencing some hand and foot syndrome. One finger is peeling and a couple small cracks. I keep right after them. Putting lots of lotion on hands and feet. I wrapped my cracks at night with antibiotic cream and a bandaide. I make sure I wear gloves outside, gloves inside if I have to have my hands in water to wash something. I have noticed more numbness in my hands and drop things. When I wake up in the morning they are asleep. Oh well, guess its minor. Let us know what you find out when your doc returns. hugs, Sandy
