**NEW** Starting Chemo March 2009

14 days and counting .....Exactly two weeks from today for the first group..

I was given an "all clear"!!!  The mammo and US showed absolutely nothing!!  They couldn't find anything that the MRI referred to.  The MRI showed a 6mm area of enhancement.  That area was not visible in any other test....so I was told it was just a false reading.  They will keep watching that area for changes, but thought as is well.  I see the doc on Wed.  I was told he could do an MRI guided biopsy, but didn't think there would be any need.

So...I am feeling much better.  My bloodwork came back today.  Everything looks great. My cancer marker is below 0.5....0-32 is normal.

I am going to dinner and getting a good night sleep tonight!!

Thank you all for your encouragement and well wishes.  I do appreciate it!!
