Wednesday, June 3, 2009 | A Frustrating story
I met with my doctor before treatment yesterday and she said that even though my PET scan was clear they may not be able to reduce my treatments.  I guess I shouldn't have gotten my hopes up about it, they said they will double check my markers and see but they may not be able to change it.  It really sucks, I hate getting treatments so much, I just want my life back.

    I know how you feel. After my clean PET scan after treatment #4, it made going back for treatment even more difficult. I dread each and every one of them. The good news is that this is temporary. My onc shared a story with me last time re: how they used to treat Hodgkin's. 36 months of chemo! Can you even imagine?!

I got a call today to tell me the results of my PET scan.  There is no trace of cancer!!!  I am so excited, this also means that I will probably only need 2 more months of chemo!!  I am so excited!!
