    Consultation Results

    See surgeon about growing – bump incision tomorrow

    Antibiotics for infection- levaquin

    Start chemo in 2 weeks

    CT scan-end of next week- to where cancer is spreading

    Cisplatin & Gemzar may at best may extend life approx 1 year or less, to which everyone in the room became hysterical……..

    I am scared to death to lose my mother, I know I should be lucky, having her almost 40 years, but I want more. I want to fix this, and make it go away.

    Option #1
    Gemzar once week 3 weeks on 1 week off for 6 months

    Or

    Option #2
    Gemzar+Cisplatin once a weak, 2 weeks on and 1 week for 6 months

    Margins were clear during vein resection, so there is no need to radiate right now per MSK physician, which was strange because pathology said different. So now I am confused.
