The Latest

Sorry I haven't been posting here for a while. I update via email and on Facebook more often. I'm currently at chemo receiving my Avastin and Abraxane.

I see my oncologist later this morning for the regular monthly checkup. I have a feeling she will schedule a PET scan and CT Scan for May. Things seem to be going as well as expected. I have been off the steroids since Feb 15. I feel good most of the time, but get very fatigued quickly when doing tasks that require a lot of energy. All in all, I can't complain.

I received results of a brain MRI done the last week of March - everything's stable for now. I have another brain MRI at the end of May and a dr. visit with the neurological oncologist.

My feet are feeling better on their own. I have not taken the gabapentin and hope I don't have to. I still have nosebleeds. There's a possibility I will be taken off Avastin if they continue or get worse.
