PET scan results show marked improvement. There is some residual activity in both supraclavicular and the sternal area but otherwise, the larger nodes have essentially disintegrated into nothing. I am speechless. Less than two months of hyperthermia and low dose radiation achieved what two years of noxious, poisonous and debilitating chemo could not. My sinuses they believe to be of a biological cause. I am not so sanguine. I agreed to start another ten day course of antibiotics and if I do not improve, I will have to insist on a biopsy. The scan "looked" clear as far as my sinuses are concerned and the radiologist is convinced that there is no cancerous activity in the area. Hmmm...
My oncologist believes I should be done with treatment soon. Yes, a cure is possible even with Stage IV cancer. Screw the rest of the medical community who thinks otherwise. A bunch of ignorant chemo pushers. Never again would I put a drop of chemo into my body. I love myself too much for that.

ReplyDeleteWhat's the emoticon for a huge ear-to-ear grin that will last all day and then some? Cause that's what I have after reading this.
