-kamiHello Again!
Sorry it has taken me so long to respond back to everyone. Thank you to everyone who has written on my wall and read my mom’s story. As you all know things can change everyday…not anything huge but mom was unable to have chemo last week since her magnesium was low. We’re told this is very common and cisplat just knocks your magnesium out. She had to take pills and go in to get IV fluids and so far her levels seem to be back up! The dr said there is nothing she can really do to help this…anyone else heard any different? I guess fluids and pills aren’t huge but just adds more to what she already takes/has to do!Pamela–I have been following your blog and have caught all the way up with it! It’s absolutely crazy how our stories are so very similar but roles reversed! I’m absolutely thrilled to see all of lauren’s progress and how well her body has been handling everything. It truly gives me a lot of hope knowing the “impossible” we were given at the beginning CAN happen!!
PCL1029–Thank you for your information..I will have to get my mom’s reports out and look at exact measurements and where the tumors are located. The doctors have told us they don’t think that the chemo can shrink it enough to have surgery, but said they would reevalute with us as we go. They were most reluctant to do surgery because she had cancer in both lobes already and said even if they did surgery on the left half the right half already had growths. Again i Know this is not much information and from your story it seems it IS possible to have surgery if there are lesions in the right lobe…I will be getting back with you shortly after I go look at mom’s reports.
