Next week will be my seventh chemo cycle after recurrence. This will make 19 cycles since diagnosis 4 years ago. I'm getting pretty good at this.
I asked again about continuing chemo after this cycle at my oncologist appointment this week. My appointment next month includes a MRI. I'm wondering what they will do if the MRI shows a little growth. The doctor said something unexpected. If there is any growth that means the chemo is not working. If the chemo is not working it does not make sense to take more. An alternative therapy would be needed. Radio surgery? We'll decide that when and if this happens.
Ominous what may happen next, but nice to know that this probably is the last round.
Have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
