tests, changes, what's next

Left here at 6:30 yesterday morning and got home at 4:30. Long day. Drove down with the full moon and on my way home saw a herd of elk. Nice!

Started the day with a PET scan. Then to acupuncture. Then meeting with the oncologist to get the results. Scan shows growth of one of the tumors plus increase in plural effusion-which means cancer cells are pissing off healthy cells. Well, they are pissing me off too....
So, we are adding Avastin to the Alimta. Hopefully, this will be the killer combo.

Next chemo is Nov. 2. That will be another long day. I have to have an MRI in the morning, then will meet with oncologist. Then off to chemo education to learn about Avastin. Then chemo.
Hopefully, I can squeeze in an appointment to get acupuncture.

Well, that is the news from this end.
hugs,
