Well I’m going to Mayo on the 11th for my 6 month gallium scan. I’ve been off lanreotide for 6 months exactly since my last scan so I guess I’ll see. If I have to get back on it to keep the slow the cancer down then I guess I have a decision to make. The thing is I’m 71 October 18th so I have to ask myself do I want to live longer with the horrible side effects of the injections or do I want to at least have somewhat of a life but shorter? My faith sustains me and reminds me there “so much more after this” 🙏♥️🤗

Thanks for the update, @spinhead. I hope that you will post again after your Gallium Scan on the 11th and I hope that gives you an understanding of what help the Lanreotide injection(s) provided for you.

I look forward to hearing from you again. Will you continue to post with your concerns and questions?
