NO new cancer, everything in the liver shrunk. Now I do chemo every 3 weeks instead of 2, and it's avastin only, which I tolerate well. I get to do this until January! Then another CAT scan. I'm so excited. I also got a prescription for my numbness in my hands and feet. I hope it works.
I have trouble typing so this is short.

Frustration....
It seems like no matter what I try this neuropathy gets worse every day. My feet are 80% numb, with my big toe and the toe next to it totally numb. My fingers are 80% numb too. I can feel a little sensation, but not much. Things that I could normally do that I can't now.....Undo and do my bra, open lids, walk normal, among other things. I have trouble doing the girls hair, doing up my pants etc. It drives me nuts. My arms and hands are also weak. I have a tough time even making a fist. I was so frustrated the other night I broke down and had a good meltdown. But on the upside, besides fatigue it is really my only other side effect that really bugs me.
A good note: My CAT scan was good. I will know more Tuesday, but I was told no new cancer and the tumors in my liver shrunk again. YAY! I should also find out if I am going to receive Y-90 radiation, and what kind of Chemo I will be on now. Lots of unanswered questions will be answered. Nervous but excited.
AND!.... I got my 40th birthday present early: Nice huh? I have always wanted one, it's my dream car.
