Well new medication 💊 caused some swelling.  It also led to a elongated EKG🤔
But I got off it and Cardiologist says my Heart ❤️ is good and the ultrasound on my legs showed no clotting.  EKG is not elongated anymore.  We are going to try a lower dose of Medication and monitor heart weekly.  Should start next week 🙏

Yesterday I Started the new biomedicine called   Retevmo 80 mg. It is also called 
Selpercatinib  2 caplets twice a day.
Hopefully this one will be easier for me to take.  Also Dr Moazzam is trying to get me set up for a biopsy down in the Pancreas.

Well I got a MRI on Monday and it confirmed that it spread to Pancreas🤕 
Well now I am waiting for approval of a new biomed.  I hope that this one works better on my system 😊

My scan was mixed.  Cancer out of Sternum (from Radiation) and reduced in the Lungs (from biomed).  But we have to run a MRI on the Pancreas (new)🤕
Overall pretty good results on what we were targeting, probably needed to look at other biomed after MRI.

Labs are good today at monthly Zometo infusion and check in😊. PEP scan set for Friday to see how the Daily BioMed pills Lenvatinib.  I think it is working on the Lungs but It is difficult on my body.  I’m afraid it will be another mixed results.  Prayers needed 🙏

I had a mixed results on the Scan but overall Dr was happy with the results in the lungs and mostly stable in sternum.  He wants me on the biomed (Lenvatinib).  Just have to live with side effects. I restarted it today. I got a lot of good steps over the last 3 weekends 👍
