A Little Good News

I had blood drawn when I got Herceptin and I have been curious (and worried) about the results. Specifically, I've been worried that my liver function tests and my tumor markers were going to be elevated. I emailed my oncologist yesterday (I can't tell you how cool it is to have a doctor who does email!) and everything is NORMAL! In the email I also asked her to help me get scheduled for my new port, so that will be coming down the pike too. I don't need the new port desperately but it sure will be nice to have one that works!

Just to keep you all in the loop- I definitely have some shit growing in my right breast again. I'm just hoping that that's the only spot... I'm hopeful that it is, but I guess I wouldn't be surprised if something else lights up on my pre-trial scan. I haven't been scheduled for that scan yet, but it should be happening in the next couple weeks.
