kimblanchard Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 Well it turns out I am not qualified for the Phase One Trial. Allergy to Sulfa kicked me out....Oh Well. I meet with the ONC next Tues and we'll see what other options are open. jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharlieD Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 Jim, Sorry to hear you didn't qualify for the trial. I'm sure the ONC has something else up his sleeve that will work. Take care and God Bless. Keep on a fishin. CharlieD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SBeth Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 I'm so sorry; I know what a let down that can be, but keep the faith that there is another treatment that is perfect for you! Keep up the good spirits! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tnmynatt Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 Jim, So sorry you didn't qualify. I'm sure there are other options. Avastin comes to mind. Also, I really think you need to talk to a rad. onc. about doing pinpoint (IMRT) radiation to that node. It was so effective for Charlie and he didn't have any side-effects. Take care. Praying for you daily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patkid Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 I can not believe that there is one single thing on the face of this earth that you are not OVER QUALIFIED for..............Your spirit and attitude (addietude) are awesome....... I am sure there is something much better in the offing. Prayers, Jim, and lots of support. Brat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaffie Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 Well darn! Let's pray the onc has something even better to offer. Kathy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LynneH Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 Darnit Jim! Okay, that wasn't the trial for you because there is something else that will be better for you. Perhaps a little fishing is in order while you wait for your next marching orders from the doc? Thinking of you, Lynne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gail p-m Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 Jim Sorry this trial wasn't the one for you. But I'm sure your onc will keep on looking until he finds the right trial or chemo for you. In the meantime, as others have advised, go fishin' for awhile. Sending my prayers. gail p-m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamataca Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 Something about closing a door an opening a window...just don't jump out the window! You fight the fight like no one else. I'm interested to see what the next plan is. Kelly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Wood Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 Rats! I am allergic to sulfa also. Hoping for something else for you. Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nushka Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 Jim, Well, this only means that THIS trial is not the one for you. There are many others out there and many new treatments as well. Praying for the right plan. As others have said, you might as well go fishing for a few days. Freeze the fish and in a few weeks when you get your good news we can all come to your house for a fish fry. To heck with the cholesterol for one night.

Don M Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 Jim: too bad you could not do this one. I am sure your onc has someting else you can try. don M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
