Wow, it’s been a while since I last posted in December. Just to bring you up to date a little, in November I completed my heavy duty chemo regimen. Then I went on “maintenance” chemo every three weeks. However, after only 4 treatments of this chemo, my CA125 started going up again....which means the maintenance drugs were not keeping the cancer at bay. So, we stopped that treatment and I had a CT scan. It showed some small areas of cancer but nothing measurable. So I made the decision to stop treatment for the time being and repeat me CT scan in a few months. I had the scan last Friday and met with Dr.Walker yesterday. It showed one tumor that is 1.1cm in size. It is now measurable since it’s over 1 cm. So, what that means for me is that I now qualify for a Phase I clinical study. I will meet with another doctor next week to see what trials are available to me. So, this is good news because being able to participate in a study like this gives me an added option with which to fight my cancer. Health wise, I've been feeling pretty good. Some days are better than others but overall I cannot complain.
Thank you for your continued prayers!
Love, Cathy
