Latest CT Results

Ed had a CT scan this past Wednesday.  He then had an appointment with Dr. B on Thursday for the results and his next treatment.  Good news is that the tumors have once again shrunk and so Ed and Dr. B have agreed to eliminate the Irinotecan for the next 3 months (until the next CT scan).

Needless to say, Ed was quite pleased and in fact went into the appointment hoping this would be the result, so I'm glad he wasn't disappointed.  As you may recall, he was off the Irinotecan for about a year-and-a-half before they had to start it again late last summer.  It is the Irinotecan that caused him to lose his hair and feel "less well" after treatment.  So Ed is thrilled to get a break from this chemo drug for a bit plus it shortens his biweekly treatments by about 1-2 hours.

In fact, feeling so good about this that he's even scheduled his next few treatments on Wednesdays so he can go directly to golf afterwards.

Happy Spring!
