I'll have to check your blog out. Elsa, I understand being discouraged (oh yes I do), but at least in my case, I seem to have very little idea of what's going on inside, so let's hope the situation is happier than you fear.SGhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02070002119579123328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-283566705150810720.post-16685236793618265912009-02-26T16:11:00.000-05:002009-02-26T16:11:00.000-05:00Card Blue: It sounds like good news! My "stable" means growth of close to 20%<BR/>Kathy: Shrinkage of 20% is great!<BR/><BR/>I'll reach my 18th week on the 6th, I'll post the results of my scan. I have a feeling that they will kick me out of the study... :( since my tumors have been growing more than they should.Elsa D.http://www.blogger.com/profile/06583007160678018984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-283566705150810720.post-67957896500745728072009-02-26T11:16:00.000-05:002009-02-26T11:16:00.000-05:00Yes, my blog is at <BR/>http://isthisasgoodasitgets2.blogspot.com/<BR/><BR/>My results were GOOD! Shrinkage of 20% to all measurable tumors. I had 9 little buggers. I was so happy about the reduction in size, I forgot to ask if there was a reduction in number. Some were less than 1mm. Look into seeing a clinical nutritionist. I'm a big advocate for a good program. It's really helped with energy, side effects, etc. and I honestly believe it helped me achieve these results.If you feel comfortable, I have no issues with emailing I've learned from all of you and hope that some that I talk to have learned something from me too.Kathyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05900166688273592932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-283566705150810720.post-71372420536556950112009-02-24T16:37:00.000-05:002009-02-24T16:37:00.000-05:00ugh, good luck tomorrow. do you blog about this stuff anywhere, or should i try to find out from you what happens here? i still feel discouraged about the scan, but you're right... these tumors do strange thingsSGhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02070002119579123328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-283566705150810720.post-46887397300537816182009-02-23T11:17:00.000-05:002009-02-23T11:17:00.000-05:00Sometimes, there is swelling before tumors die. I know one person who was booted from a clinical trial because his tumors purportedly grew. He was scanned a couple months later to see what was happening and the Radiologists found NED. Think positive? Not easy sometimes, I know because I'm having coniptions about getting my scan results in two days.Kathyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05900166688273592932noreply@blogger.com
