Scan Results
I got blown away today when my dr. told me that my scans were clear. I still have to do a brain MRI in about 2 weeks, but she was very encouraged that they did not see any metastasis. She is going to keep me on a lower dose of abraxane for a while, to try to kill any cancer cells that cannot be seen. She is also going to try to schedule me for a petscan, because she likes that test better. I started taking Tykerb last Friday and started out with 2, it made me really sick at my stomach, so I lowered it to 1. When I saw the doctor today, she told me to take a 2 day break. She also got my insurance to approve a shot of aloxi, which is currently only approved for chemo. I felt better, but not the same. I don't know how the people who started on 5 pills did it. Anyway, I am feeling encouraged by my test results. Thanks again for all of your prayers and support. I am continuing to pray for all of my sisters on this site. Blessings.
