Hi Kris,
Good luck on Wednesday – may all go well and you’ll be on to the trial!!! My prayers and thoughts are with you. As for God, we all forget sometimes – but thankfully He understands and alway stands by AND with us!!!
Peace,
MaryKris…. participants in Part B, a tumor tissue sample is mandatory for biomarker analysis – that’s you, Kris. Wow…my fingers are crossed and so is everything else. Thinking of you and sending tons of good wishes your way.
Hugs,
MarionKris, you may forget sometimes but God doesn’t and if he did I am sure Teddy would remind him!
P.S. Rain already knows how courageous you are what she doesn’t know yet is what a crazy lady you are! LOL Wishing you the very best on Wednesday! Sending you a ton of prayers and love.
The biopsy is Wed. I have to be there at 8am….. And a poor friend of mine needs to get up and take me! Good to have friends!
The only thing I am worried about is the biopsy, even tho the drug really isn’t proven. But I’m trying to give it all up to God. (I just forget sometimes!)Kris,
From your posts you seem like a courageous and amazing woman.
Best of luck with the trial
Rain
Kris, I answered your other email today but was wondering when is the Biopsy, you only said next week.
I have been approved for the clinical trial! Biopsy is scheduled for next week and I start the trial the following Monday, the 22nd. I can’t wait to see how well this new drug works!
WOW, Kris, I can’t wait to hear the rest of this story. Since you are so tired, don’t jump for joy let JOY jump for you!
Great blood work! WBC and RBC are barely low. Platelets are normal, bilirubin is 0.1 (normal 0-0.4 at FCCC) and the best news!! CA 19-9 levels 48.8 (normal at FCCC 0-37)!!!!!!
Of course, the nurse says they might be TOO good. If the lymph node doesn’t light up the ct scan I can’t be accepted into the clinical trial. But if the ct scan shows no affected node, then maybe it WASN’T cancer!
I’m on such a high if I wasn’t so tired I’d be jumping for joy! Now to wait to see the results of the ct scan tomorrow or Wed…… Not gonna stress about it….Amazing how much time it takes to manage insurance and medical appts! So glad all is going ahead w clinical trial and I’m keeping my fingers crossed for you to qualify for this, Kris! Meanwhile, keep on doing those things that bring you joy!
WillowMore hours on the phone again!! GRRRRRRR is right Gavin! Denied again, then approved again! My case worker is another pit bull. Shes the only good thing about AETNA. So much for being off Xanax tho!
And anyone who thinks this is US based health care– I spoke to a senior supervisor who (it turns out) is in Manila! WTF??? AETNA, gotta be glad I met ya! NOT!!
