The oncologist feels that the Zometa will strengthen the areas in my spine and pelvis. One Doctor wanted to administer it monthly along with my monthly Lanreotide. I went with the Quarterly dose as another doctor had recommended. I still do monthly Lanreotide.
My next scan is December. The PRRT was successful in reducing the size of tumors in my Liver and about a 50% reduction in the Lung tumor.
We are all on a journey for sure. November will be two years for me.

Hi gesmone1
As we all have different responses and I feel like a test subject, I am happy for you that you had success with the PRRT. Unfortunately, for me, my tumours grew 1 cm. per month, so I had to stop it after 2 sessions. I had Histotripsy and so far that is working for me.
Good luck to all of us!
