Hi, just thought I would ask for your thoughts and prayers as I have scans next Tuesday. My last 3 scans have showed no change, I still have lots of little tumors on both lungs. In November I asked my onc it we could add a little "extra chemo" to see if it made a difference. So, Because I have had few side affects, he agreed to double the irinotecan. Now I have it every 3 weeks and avastin every 2 weeks. This scan is so important, and both the Dr. and I are anxious to see the results. Either way I can keep doing chemo as long as it doesn't get worse or the drugs quit working all together. But I am praying that they are shrinking or gone! Thanks for letting me tell you of my anxieties, as I know my family is afraid to acknowledge the fear. Thanks again, Jean
