The doctor said I made his day!
That’s got to be good, right?? =)
He was very pleased – both with how ‘little’ the chemo was affecting me (compared to others who are on it) and that my scans were clean.
He said my bloodwork was gorgeous!
We are still a long ways off from the therapeutic level of the chemo, but he said it will take awhile.
His expectation was for me to be in much worse shape than I was.
The Radiology reports sounded good, but he hadn’t actually laid eyes on the scans himself. He will call me next week once he has done that.
There is a cyst on my kidney, but they are not concerned about that.
I had a ultrasound of my thyroid and there are several nodules, but they appear benign and they will recheck those in a year. (If they had looked suspicious they would have done a biopsy)
My bloodwork looks good – my steroid dose is appropriate. He will continue to check my Mitotane level monthly.

There are always questions I forget to ask, so I will be sending him an e-mail Monday!

Again – thank you for your prayers. I will try to recount more adventures later, I have just been SO tired and kind of busy with travel and birthdays.

We will return to Houston late in the summer for the next round of tests.
