Although my appointment and injection were 2 weeks ago, I've hesitated to post because I really know nothing more than the previous post.  And I do not like wasting everyone's time with a bunch of "ditto", "ditto", "ditto".  Labs continue to be good, no, exceptional!!  Praise God for that.  I do have a CT scan scheduled for Monday, Feb. 25 and labs the following Tuesday (26).  The Injection of Lanreotide continues causing minor side effects, Lethargy being the most prevalent and most annoying.  There are many days when I know what I need to do but I either don't care  or if I do it, I do a poor job of whatever I'm supposed to be doing. Like now, I should have posted two weeks ago about any progress or lack of same, however, I just didn't feel like it. Then the old adage comes to mind, "why is there always enough money to do it right the second time but never enough money to do it right the first time."  Learned that saying when I was in the business world but there are times when, after an injection, it certainly applies. And being sick and really down in my back didn't help either. The every-three-month scan should tell us something.  Of course I'm asking for your prayers to reflect the scan to show shrinking tumors....one or both.  The downside is I had the pancreatic tumor for many years before actually being discovered and knowing that my earthly doctor said there is no cure for this type of cancer, I am starting to resign myself to this fact.  What the injections are meant to do is maintain the status quo with the Oncologist monitoring the progress.
So please be in agreement with me that the scan will show a decrease in size.  Any amount would be progress and praised.
The other day I asked JoAnn if I was carrying this "For better or worse" and "In sickness and in health" thing too far. Through all of the traumas to my body, she has been right there to be my T-1 nurse and take care of me.   Oh well, I guess God doesn't think so because He's kept me around this long.  But somehow I don't feel this is fair to her.  She is a trooper.  Praise God for JoAnn!!!
I promise the next post will be much sooner than this post.  Next injection is March 5.
Thank you all for your continued prayers for me and JoAnn.
God's Peace and Blessings to each of you.
