September 21st update

Nancy had the bone biopsy today.  The took 6 bone samples from her right hip.  The doctor's and staff at Inland Imaging and Holy Family Hospital were amazing.  Nancy will rest this weekend....may have some pain in recovery due to the amount of samples.  Lab results and the new medication plan will probably happen Wednesday at her next infusion.  Thanks for all the calls, thoughts, cards, and support. 

September 19th update

The bone biopsy is now scheduled for this Friday at 10:45.  Not sure when we will get results or the new plan.  Thanks to all!

September 18th update

We met with Dr Anthony today.  The cancer is active and a new treatment plan needs to be made.  Nancy will be scheduled for a bone biopsy in the next week or so.  They will analyze the changes to the cancer and then make decisions on what meds to use.  Her one tumor marker almost doubled again in the last week.

That is really all we know.  This is not an easy time for Nancy.  We thank you all for the support you give to her (and me).  We will update and soon as we know more.

September 17th update

The PET scan was not conclusive, so Nancy had a bone scan last Thursday.  The preliminary report on Friday was that there was activity.....there is a chance she will need a bone biopsy to get a clearer read on what is going on.  Our appointment is tomorrow (Tuesday) at 10:15.  More to follow......

September 6th update

Nancy has two of her numbers increase on her last tests.  Therefore, she is having a PET scan today.
She should know the results later next week to see if any changes in her treatment need to be made.
Due to travel, the blog will be updated next weekend.  Thank you, BC
