good news!!

Got back from the oncologist late yesterday, so after two trips and 600ks later, the ct scan showed that everything is fine, well as fine as can be, the enlarged lymph nodes were due to a sinus infection, my markers are just a little higher but nothing to worry about as this stage, my bloods are excellent, SO will continue on xeloda, yes, it will eventually stop working and discussion with oncologist about this means that possibly next treatment will be vineloribine another chemo in tablet form which is very good,unfortunately for me palbociclib and ribociclib will not be an option as both look as if even if passed by pbs will be available for first line treatment only, so thats me out of the equation, I am very grateful that there are still other treatments available, the two tumours in my liver are stable and have not grown or decreased, still all through my back area but again no new nasties, so all in all I am very pleased, has been a very unsettling week,m but again pleased I only had to wait 48 hours for my scan results, I am very grateful to my amazing oncologist and the Lyell McEwin  Hospital where I am treated, the staff are amazing, so fortunate to have a world class hospital that I can access,now, its time to BREATHE and soldier on, my McGrath nurse coming for a cuppa on Monday, and tomorrow is my granddaughters 17th birthday!!! we will be having a family celebration tomorrow evening, life is good, I am going to make SURE I will be here for her 21st!!
