in Uterine/Endometrial Cancer #1

i had my first CT Scan since starting on the,immunotherapy drug, Keytruda.  I won't get the official results until next Monday when I have my next infusion and doctors appointment with my oncologis.  Today when the radiologist,who reads my scan, came in to unhook my port access and said that all he saw was shrinkage and some was significant.  One spot may have remained tha same, but he had to go over the whole scan carefully.  This is so much better than I had ever hoped for.  Holy Cow!!!! This might actually be working.  I am indeed blessed and many prayers answered.  To all of you wonderful ladie.. There is always hope.

Hugs and prayers, Lou Ann

    Lou Ann, that was so nice of the radiologist to say anything!  Rather than sit and worry he gave you such a gift, which you have shared with us.  Thank you for that! May they continue to shrink and please give us a full report.
