Guest guest Posted June 30, 2010 Report Share Posted June 30, 2010 I got the results from yesterday's scan today. The fact that my doctor called, and called so quickly, was not a good sign. Pretty much a good news/really bad news deal, actually. The soft tissue tumors and spinal tumors are either stable or regressed to scan-invisibility, which is good. For them, the hormonals and/or the LDN are working fine. The large tumors in my femur and both hips are roaring ahead like gangbusters, which is really, really bad. My doctor fears that fractures are imminent, which is far from where they were just three short months ago. I'm seeing him and a radiation oncologist tomorrow, and an oncologic orthopedist on Friday. We'll discuss my options, but my feeling is that none of them will look like good options to me. Lose/lose decisions are not fun to deal with. And oh, I am SO sick of having to go through this every other month or so, this 'what is the point at which I stop, what am I willing to deal with, and what am I willing to risk in order to eke out a few more weeks' thing. I'll keep updating on my cancer blog, so anyone interested can go there for up-to-the-minute news. All good wishes gladly accepted... ~Eileen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
