    I am so excited for you. My husband (38 yrs old and just diagnosed) starts Gem/Cis on Thursday. I pray that we get the same results. His is in liver and lymph nodes.

    Wow…that is fantastic. And, you have only begun with a few more of these treatments. Based on his response, your husband is the perfect candidate for this therapy. Keep it coming.
    Hugs,

    So today was the follow up visit for my husband.

    He finished his first round of chemo (2 weeks on/1 off for 8 weeks total.)

    He has stage 4 CC (in liver, lungs, lymph nodes)

    PET scan shows…

    All tumors (liver, lymphs and lungs) have “shrinkage” (liver tumor is 66% smaller.)

    His CA 19-9 went from 77 to 31 (so he’s back in the normal range.)

    We are happy that he has responded so well to chemo thus far
    and happy for shrinkage and happy for normal CA 19-9.

    Off to another round of chemo on Thursday…. :)

    He feels great, and that is the most important thing of all for now! :)
