Journal entry by Christine Chisholm —
Happy Friday! I am responding to the chemo like a champ!!!
I received some really positive blood and CT scan results yesterday. In January of this year is was at a 5, May 1st my “tumor” scale jumped rapidly to 400. June the test showed I was at 373 after only 2 treatments. Yesterday my test results came in at 190 After just two more treatments!! This “scale” tells the Dr.s how much decease I have in my body. I am so excited to see the progress I am making so far, I dropped 50%!!!!!!!!!!
My CT scan looked great to my oncologist, this was her message to me... please keep the prayers going, I can feel them and I am staying strong.
Love your friend always,
Christine❤️❤️❤️
Hi Christine,
I am stuck on a very long call and cannot call you, but I did open your scans. I think they look good, and your tumor marker is coming down, now down to 195 The tumors measure over all as "stable" but I think you are headed toward shrinkage. :) I hope this gives you lots of peace of mind. I am out of the office tomorrow for a family funeral, but I will see you Monday and can answer any questions you may have.
Be well,
Noelle
