Physical Therapy Begins!
It’s so nice to move onto something…anything at this point! After 9 weeks of sitting doing nothing I am so motivated for this! They gave me some exercises to do and did some massage. Felt pretty darned good. But she was explaining how because of the pectoral muscles that were cut and the effect that…

NED!!!!!
After reading several medical papers and treatment guidelines, I finally figured out the correct question to ask and how to ask it. I may have more useless knowledge in my head that I hope to never use again. So this leads me to the exciting news that I am in NED! No Evidence of Disease!!…

Half a level up!

Or maybe the Universe though I forgot and I’m getting a refresher. OR the Universe is letting me know that I’m not in…

A little Closer
I wouldn’t call my trip to the surgeon’s office today a complete setback or failure. The one side had maybe 2cc (16cc the previous week) and the other side (the important side) was down to 13cc (20cc the previous week). While it was not exactly what I was hoping for (0’s) it’s way better than…

Ho Hum…
I totally forgot to update on the last Friday’s aspiration appointment. I was supposed to go to the Radiology Oncologist first so we could get everything set up so I could start radiation. Well because I can’t raise my arms over my head yet, it put that appointment on hold for a bit. So they…
