Just a small update to let you know what the latest news is...
I mentioned in one of my last posts I would be starting chemotherapy again this week. This has been modified slightly. I have started taking Xeloda, a pill form of chemotherapy, as of yesterday, in a very small dose. We will taper this up as things progress. As far as the Avastin goes, I won't start that until I get back from New York in June. Today, I will be seeing my GI doctor and it is likely I will start a medication called Remicade, which will be administered through an IV. As well, I'll be doing my ongoing doses of Zometa and Sandostatin, the former through IV and the other through an injection. I'm tapering down the steroids, and fortunately it looks like the wound I have is beginning to heal. That is the latest on the medical front; hopefully I didn't bore you all to death.
Overall, I'm feeling pretty good.
