Re: Bad news, no longuer NED

Dear FOB,
I am encouraged by your more recent post indicating that additional data is coming in and it is good news. Seems like you have many options..YEA!!! A quick zap to the nodes would be great!

I used the zap a met approach with the cryo and then followed up with an insurance policy via another round of chemo.

Hopefully others on the site who have had mets to nodes can offer up some real world advice on next steps.

You will overcome those pesky cells!!!
