@andycapp, Wishing you well in your continuing recovery. Your body will appreciate this break in treatment! This can leave people with a range of emotions; relief that it's over, and fear that it may not be the right decision. Are you comfortable with this decision?

@lls8000
I’ll tell ya Lisa, I have mixed feelings.
Yesterday, I received the radiologist report about the 5/15 CT scan.
There are some positives to take away in so far as the impact on the mass. However, my lungs are in bad shape (fibrosis and emphysema and new pneumonitis indicators). I have to be a realist and recognize that the treatment bought me some time but the likelihood of a cure and/or long term survival doesn’t look very promising.

Anyway, I’m hoping that my red blood cell numbers improve so that by breathing improves.
