I was supposed to see my oncologist on Monday afternoon. I went in for labs yesterday, and had my typical Ostrich weekend planned.

This morning about 7 AM, the onco RN calls to say they have had a cancellation, they have my lab report, and could I come in today instead? Oh yeah~ that doesn't scare me, much!

So...Reggie and I go to the onco doc, oxygen level is good, my pulse is a bit elevated as is my B/P ( situational, no doubt) and my weight is really good!

Come to find out~ in the 3 weeks since I started the Tamoxifen for my recurrance, my markers have gone DOWN~ 8 whole points! Being as in this instance they are relying on markers as the touchstone, this was fantastic news!!!!

I stay on the Tamox, and don't even have to see the Doctor again until the end of September! I get to have a good, Ostrich-rich summer! YAY YAY YAY!!!!!!

Hugs,
Chen♥

    Thank you sooo much~ 8 tumor
    Thank you sooo much~ 8 tumor markers points is better than an 8 pound weight loss, or in this economy even better than an 8 dollar pay raise! I am cautiously optimistic, not foolish, and yet of course enjoying anything good coming my way.

    Sooooooo Happy
    To hear your good news! This was such a great way to start my weekend, reading this.

    No doubt that your positive attitude and all the positive enrgy and prayers that have been sent your way are helping the Tamoxifen to work its magic.

    Enjoy your summer!!!
