It's been a great week! First, my white blood cell counts are up so I only had to have on 'booster' shot this week rather than two. Second, I went in for an appointment with my oncologist today. Going on a chest x-ray from a couple weeks ago, the report shows a 'marked shrinkage' in the mass! Which didn't mean all that much to me until he talked about me stopping chemo soon!
The new game plan looks like I'll have a CAT Scan on Friday which will give a much better picture of the mass. From there we'll determine if I can stop soon. But if it looks as good as the x-ray may indicate then after finishing the third and fourth sessions (hello, end of November), I'll take a two week break and have a PET scan to really determine if I'll need the fifth and sixth treatments or not!
