Pet/CT scan,

"No apparent breast carcinoma, no lymphatic activity"  no uptake or activity found.  The Dr.  the great Dr. C of IBC fame, is happy yet guarded.  Due to severe SE, he is continuing Ixampra, dropping Xeloda till Cam can get with Radiologist.  It looks like surgury is out, so going with whole chest radiation.  He's not real thrilled about having to do that, but he said the massive amount of involement when she was DX, (IBC in both breast, skin involement over both breast, up chest above collar bone and under arm around to back, Ovary, axillary nodes, and supercavicle node) that surgury will be a high risk of instant recurrance due to skin. 

That worry is for another day,  today, Cancer has left my Cam.  We are in treatment room now while she is getting chemo, so tomorrow nite, some form of lobster, pasta, and wine.

Thank all of you for your prayers and best wishes.
