Thank so much

There is a CAR-T trial at Mayo. Issue is that there is only a 10% likelihood that I would qualify and there is the risk that the biopsy of the original tumor would be depleted, making future trials unavailable (standard warning). Also informed by my Northwestern (hospital treating me) oncologist of two potential trials at U of C, which is much closer as I live in Chicago. Interview later in November with U of C. Keeping fingers crossed.

Appointments is in one month.
Immunotherapy was not given as an option.
I will update my status after the visit to Mayo. Thanks for your concern, and good luck to all in this thread (well, to all suffering with similar conditions, but especially to all in this thread)!
