I’ve gotten a little behind in posting and while I’m writing this on January 16th, I’m backdating the post to January 10th when we actually received the full results of PET scan #9.
As I’d mentioned on the January 5th “Into the Tube” post we had a heads up over the phone that the news was going to be good, and it was! The summary is that there was nothing new found and the “previous areas of concern” … “appears stable” and in fact a bit better than the previous scan.
In addition to this good news there was also good news on the blood work front as well! Several of the key indicators are improving. White Blood cell Count, Red Blood cell Count, Hemoglobin, and platelets are all up.
LDH (Lactate Dehydrogenase) is lower, which is a good thing.
All in all, an excellent report, for which we are both very grateful for. Monitoring eases up a bit over the next while with a follow up oncologist visit on March 7th, 2022.
That’s great news!
