That sounds like a greatoutcome for you, particularly compared to some of the situations on this site. I'm very encouraged by it but can you confirm that when you started chemo, did you have secondaries in your lungs? anywhere else?
And if I could, do you know the type of chemo you were given and how much did it knock you around?
Many thanks in advance.

My 44 year old son is on his second round of chemotherapy. He's list his hair. Now battling nausea with Zofran. He had a recurrence of a 5 mm tumor in his right axilla causing swelling, pain and compression of his radial artery causing his right hand to drop. He's much better after 2 rounds of chemotherapy. Hoping for a full recovery. Our oncologist tells us that although it's a rare cancer, 1 to 3 per million, it's very treatable with chemo.
