So I got an e-mail from my physician's assistant last week and my scans showed no change! She did mention that sometimes the elevated blood levels are a sign of things to come. But, for now, my oncologist and P.A. agree to leave me on my existing drug and keep monitoring the blood levels and pain. I am thrilled for several reasons. First of all, although there never is a 'good' time to start chemo, I was really dreading starting chemo as school was starting. Secondly, all of my organs are completely clean! And, finally, it still means that I have one aromatase inhibitor between me and chemo! I was hoping to talk to her on Friday to figure out how soon to have blood work drawn and schedule follow up appointments and my next Zometa drip. But, as things go sometimes, we never caught up with each other!
Trent starts first grade tomorrow! He has Sister Margaret Ann as a teacher. The same first grade teacher who managed to make it through a year with my brother, Scott, who will turn 30 this fall. Best of luck to her!!
