Six Months After

It's ben 6 months since my third PRRT treatment in Basel Switzerland and things have improved a great deal.  The Carcinoid Syndrome  is still around but less and I feel much better.

My first apponitment with Dr. O'Dorsio since the December treatment was in May and he was very pleased with the resullts.  The scans showed that the Tumors were slowed down and were shrinking as well as no new ones, he also said the PRRT treatment would continue to work on the Tumors for as much as a year.

My next appointmet with Dr. O is in September and maybe they will consider surgery to remove the primary this all depends on the condition of my Liver by then.  I also still have the drain in my abdomin and drain off about 1200 ml of  fluid every other day.

Again, things seem to be headed in the right direction and my hopes are still high, and I want to encourage anyone else dealing with any Cancer to stay strong and think positive. 

Thanks to all that have been with Connie and I through this battle.
