More results are in ...

Went in to Gatwick Park yesterday for my follow up CT scans, and was somewhat dissapointed my consultant radiologist was not there. He normally gives me an update after the scans so we had to resolve ourselves to the fact that we would have to wait 3 weeks until we get to see the oncologist again. How pleased was I last night when the radiologist called from the car on his way home, not only that but he had already dictated his report so the news was not provisional! As always there is good news and not so good news, but it's not bad news. The news is that my liver is nearly clear. The are a couple of small tumours left but these are much smaller than they were. The tumours in my pelvis are also much smaller than they were. Overall this is great news, but I did not get the chance to ask if as they were all much smaller, this meant they were still dying off or if they had just shrunk. So now it's a 3 week wait to see the oncologist to find out what, if any, more treatment is needed. I am quite optimistic about this as the radiologist was at pains to say how good this news was and that he was extremely pleased to see such good progress. So now it's onwards and upwards, we have a busy weekend, again, and a few things planned for next week, mainly getting ready for our break in Spain. Have a good weekend all.
