Results from Scans

I found out Friday my results. The lung nodules have not changed in size. The paraesophageal mass appears to have shrunk by about 20%. Dr. Amanze talked to me about the dangerous location of the paraesophageal mass. I told her I understood. We will keep on doing the chemo and scan again in 3 months.

Update

I know it's been awhile since I've posted....sorry!

I started my fourth cycle today.
Had a PET scan last Friday.
Dr. Amanze said the lung nodules appeared to be smaller. The esophageal mass was difficult to see. She wants me to have a CT scan of the chest to better see the esophageal mass....or who knows, maybe it's not there. Wouldn't that be great. I'll have the scan Wednesday.

I've been doing good. I get tired real easy, but that's nothing new.

All in all, things are going well.
