Well we just met with the doctor about my three month results. They said the tumor looked stable with a maybe that it is shrinking. I'm disappointed. I guess I should be happy or neutral but I'm not.
The elbow is showing some signs of reducing in size. The shoulder is showing t2 signal changes. I never knw what a t2 signal was until January. It's a frequency signal on the MRI. It looks to be getting a smudge darker. Apparently it is hard to say shrinking stable or growing.
When I finished my last treatment they said it was stable. Then at my four month MRI they said they were wrong all along. It was like watching paint dry. It got obviously larger.
So now were stable and I don't believe them. We're increasing my dosage from 400mgs to 800mgs a day. They hope the increased dose will knock Fred on his ass. This is assuming my body can handle the increased dosage.
I'm so annoyed. Why can't I have good 10 or 20% shrinkage like everyone else???
