Re: after reading post by Rolepaul on brain mets--repostr 4 those running out of opti
Two sites that were just blips were false alarms according to the radiologist and the doctor. Probably a Lumbar Puncture scar and a strain from when Nina was giving massages. The consensus is that there has been no evidence of disease in her brain and spine since April. Still having lots of chemo, but backing off MRI scans to once per 8 weeks, IV to three every four weeks, and IT to once every two weeks. Trying to get to once per month on the IT to save on travel expenses and vacation. If this continues, it is likely that we have passed the point of high concern for now.
Moral of the story, if you give massages that are deep tissue, hard yoga, and walk five miles a day; your back is probably going to hurt and might show on MRIs as dye uptake. Nina is doing great, but massages at 3:00 am are not sexy if you have to get up and go work in three hours.
Now we need to spread the news as I am hearing it might work on sub-surface tumors as well. As they did in Independence DAy, get the Morse Code going.
