TracyD Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 I just had my third set of scans since I started on the seliciclib trial, and things are still stable!! I have been on the medication, I think, for five months now. It is possible that I am getting the placebo, but the results I am getting would suggest otherwise, as I have never experienced this kind of stability before. Prior to this trial, on and off treatment, I was always considered stable, but with a little bit of progression. At this point, the cancer seems to have stopped dead in its tracks! I find that I am more stressed about scans as time goes by. I didn't realize how stressed how I was this time until I burst into tears when my doctor told me the news. Sometimes I just feel like there is this big clock out there, just ticking away until it's time for this ugly disease to flare up. In the meantime I just keep living life.

CaroleHammett Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 Thank you so much--not just for sharing your good news, but also for participating in the seliciclib trial. Your good news (probably working, probably not placebo) is, of course, good news for all of us--news that yet another good drug may be approved soon.
