Last weekend I felt the tumor for the first time in three weeks. I was sure it was smaller but I thought it was better to wait for the doctor to confirm that before releasing any information.
First thing Pace does every week is get her blood-work done, then she sees the doctor. The results of the tests are available at treatment time the next day,
Pace saw the Oncology Surgeon on Thursday and he was happy with the progress. The good news is she is responding well to the Abraxane, and the mass has reduced in size by about 20 to 25%.
Personally, I’m glad Abraxane is punching out the cancer because it’s also taking a toll on her energy levels; they’re unfortunately, but predictably, reducing with each treatment.
