August 23rd Medical Update
Got a call from Oncologist’s office this morning that it is
ok to resume treatment. Platelets
increased. Tumor markers decreased even
with being off of treatment. (last treatment finished on July 25th) Tumor marker CA15 (breast cancer) has
decreased from 449 when treatment began in April to 65 yesterday. (0– 25 is
normal) The other tumor marker CEA has
decreased from 271 in April to 68. (0-5
is normal) Seems like the cancer cells in my body are very vulnerable to this
drug. (these work differently for
everyone) Treatments are both an art and
a science. My liver enzymes have also
seen improvement.
Hoping for clear signs of improvement in my liver and the
cancer on my September 16th MRI.
Thank you God. Thank
you everyone for your continued prayers and love.
