1/2 way? - posted by Pierre

Laura had her 4th chemo this past Thursday. Our oncologist originally said that they would do 6 to 8 treatments. Naturally we are hoping for 6, but either way she is 1/2 way through. We are anxious to get the PET scan done at the end so that we can have some idea of what is going on inside of her. Beside the effects of the chemo, Laura is not really noticing anything unusual like before she started getting treatments (swollen lymphs, difficulty breathing, etc), so we are really curious to know if the cancer has been responding to the chemo. So much is still unknown with this grey zone lymphoma that there is no way to tell without the PET scan as to any results.
