BroFTW Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 So back in February2022 my brother got a NED status, but it turned out it wasn't quite so. The technicians missed enlarged lymph nodes in the right supraclavicular region. During spring and summer my brother went through 4 cycles of chemo with irinotekan and 10 fractions of radiotherapy for the enlarged nodes. The lymph nodes shrunk right after the first chemo cycle. Today, two months after the last radiotherapy he is in complete remission. 😀 He is feeling fine, got back to the weight before the diagnosis, which was in May 2021. No symptoms and he is back to regular diet, no nausea or similar. So happy! RJN, Nguyentuan, Tom Galli and 1 other 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pstar Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 That is such awesome news Bro! So happy for you both. I have a 3mm deposit in the left temporal lobe of my brain that I am having gamma knife on this coming Monday. I hope that my outcome is as good as your brother’s has been. He has been on a long journey with this disease and so happy for this positive news. Pam BroFTW and Tom Galli 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
