char1048 Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 Took Rich to the oncologist to get his new chemo today and he did not get it , Doc said that he does have mets to his spine L2 vertebra, as well as right pedicle of L5 also minimal disc bulges at L3,L4, L5 levels. Bony metastatic disease throught the T5 vertebral body with smaller probable metastatic deposits in T8 and and T12, 2. Significant mediastinal lymphadenopathy. He wants him to see the radiation doctor and have radiation on the spine before he does any new chemo. So here we go again on this roller coaster ride. As I have said many times before (((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((I HATE CANCER)))))))))))))))))))))))))))) it is the beast of all beast and we need a cure real soon. Thanks evryone for wecoming my niece Tracy to our group. I have news on my brother but I will let Tracy post it. God Bless us all Charolette Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
