j ross Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 We have just returned from seeing our oncologist. The scan results were good. Bottom line; "There is no evidence to suggest underlying metasatic disease." Nothing seems to have changed from last scan. I do not think they use the term NED here. The oncologist says that what does show up is possibly the aftermath of the plueurodesis. He wants to stay with Iressa as he belives that Tarceva has stronger side effects and as Iressa seems to work there is little point is changing for now. Next appointment February. (Unless Barry feels unwell). Best wishes Jennie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
