treatment update...

Blood work was good. Dr said I was doing well. I asked him how long I would continue on this treatment/schedule. He said we would go on like we have,( chemo with Ixapepilone {Ixempra tm} every 3 weeks), with a CT scan next time to check response to treatment, and every so often to monitor progress, until my tumors stop responding, and start to grow, or I have side effects that are too severe to continue. If/when this happens, we would go to something else.

I had my treatment as scheduled, and don't feel too bad tonight. I'm still on a steroid high. Tomorrow, I won't be worth much, if this is like the last time.
