Hi…
I had surgery in October to remove tumors, get a colostomy since a tumor wrapped around my colon.
Six weeks later a tumor came back in my pelvic wall.
Jan- started Gemzar/cisplatin
After first scan, not working, just finished another 6 rounds of Carbo/taxol. They will do PET scan, MRI, CT scan to see what is going on. Chemo wore me down this time.
Not sure if we try another new drug, clinical trial, or nothing.
Sept. 12, I will hear more.n
Thankyou for reaching out.

Hello @miriam57 and @naturegirl53
You have both been on my mind again, as you are traveling similar journeys. If you feel like sending an update please do. Positive energy, love and healing are headed your way. So far I am doing fine, just struggling with energy. I feel like its from the radiation. Anxiously awaiting my next scan in October and getting my girls ready for 3rd grade. Stay strong warriors!! xoxoxo Eileen

@ejohn I had my 4 month check up on August 29. The CT of lungs, abdomen, and pelvis showed no change. The physical exam also showed no changes. I was very nervous before these appointments. I'm now very relieved. My next exam will be in December.

Positive energy and healing sent your way too as your next scan will be soon. It's back to school time, for sure.
