Got the result of the scans today. News is not good, The MRI show no change, the tumor in the head is stable and unchanged. However the CT scan show that there is some growth in the lungs. The main tumor mass has grown a little, since the last scan in August. Question now is do we stay with Alimta or change to oral medication. Decided to do one more round of Alimta today and go back to the multi-vitamins. I had stopped the multivitamins for 2 weeks. Well the Lord has his ways. Was trying to make a decision on the options given Alimta+Avastin or oral, however we all agreed (Jo, Rose and myself) that do one round of Alimta and check the result in 3 weeks. if the CEA marker goes up, them we have to change medication but if it does not then we are ok. At least it gives us 3 weeks to pray for direction and not make it now on our own. Anyway, i believe that the decision made today was guided by the Holy Spirit.
Pray for us that we will make the right choice and also that the results in 3 weeks can be a 'miracle'. This is a time of testing and we have often said to Trust in God and we now must put it into action. will update again. Thanks.
