I am finished with my active treatments at Tom Baker Cancer Centre! Only 18 months later! The results of my CAT scan did not identify any lymph problems. However, I am now scheduled for a PET scane. It is to see if I am a suitable owner of a dog, cat or parrot! Seriously, it will identify early any hot spots where cancer may have got a holding at remote sites in my body. I am pleased we will do that monitoring because my cancer was Stage IIIC, just below metastatic and uncurable cancer.
Dr. Tara Pickering will now monitor me at the outpatient clinic with another specialist, Dr. Pi - that's progress!
All my bloodwork and last MUGA cardiac monitoring test results were good.
I will now await a date for surgical removal of my port. It's been an easy way to get treatment but I am glad to say goodbye to it now. Yippee!
