January 31st Update

Nancy is getting headaches again.....so, she is now back on Femara. Not sure what else they can try.... our next appt and Zomeda infusion is Feb 11th.

Now is the time to focus on football, GO-PACK-GO!

January 26th Update

Nancy has been on her new meds for a couple of days....and has had a few days with no headaches. It's early in the change......but so far, no headaches.

Nancy's Dad was also diagnosed with cancer (lymphoma). He is in Florida with Nancy's sister Sharon (a nurse) and they are making treatment plans.

And finally, Green Bay in the Super Bowl.....

January 18th Update

Nancy had her appointment with Dr Anthony today. The results of the bone scan shows the "suspicious spot" is nothing, and there will be no MRI. That is not the source of the headaches. All Nancy's numbers are in line, and the bone scan confirmed that the cancer is contained or stabilized. They are going to try an alternative to Femara called Aromasin. This is also an estrogen inhibiter, however it is made from a totally different compound and may have other side effects. It is possible that the Femara is now causing the headaches.... so, we will try this for one month and see how it goes. Next appointment is February 11th. Thank you for all your help and support, BC

January 13th Update

The bone scan is this morning. Not sure about the MRI schedule yet. We will hopefully have some feedback next Tuesday.

January 8th update

The first week of January was hard on Nancy, with her neck pain and headaches. Her left arm is also not right. Yesterday we met with Dr. Liang, the radiation oncologist. Dr Liang found a "spot" on a previous scan on the spine in the neck area. She immediately called Dr Anthony. Nancy has a tentative bone scan on Tuesday (waiting on insurance approval), with probable MRI's on Thursday to learn all we can about this spot. The goal is to have those test results back for Nancy's Jan 18th appointment. This could be the source of Nancy's neck pain and headaches. (It could also be nothing).

There will also be some changes of treatment for Nancy's left arm.

We will keep you updated as we know more. Thanks for all the support, BC
