Onc visit
Here I thought all was well for a change and now I'm back into a doctor being concerned. I just need to remind myself that he's a little concerned, not a whole lot concerned.
Thanks for letting me vent. Hard not to jump right to is it back? The trial that looked promising for my type of disease was canceled just this past week by the drug company according to my specialist. He seemed disappointed by this.
Thanks for letting me vent. And sorry for being so long winded, but no voice, LOL.
Blessings to everyone here,
Leslie

Hi Leslie,
Between you and Vinny I have come to realize that I need to bone up on information concerning our blood counts. I am just starting this cancer journey and have soooo much to learn, but it sure helps when those of you that have been "around the block" with fighting this, keep us posted on how things are going with you. I'll keep you in my prayers that nothing new has developed. So sorry the trial was cancelled by the drug company...maybe it will open back up at a later date. Your venting is good, it helps me see what all I need to be aware of. Hang in there...Love...Sue0 -
CR
Leslie,
I don't want to sound like a dummy, but what does CR stand for. I have the worse problem with abbrev. of things especially with this chemo brain. Once you say it I will say say Oh yea, thats right. Anyway the surprises never cease with these treatments. Sometimes they are pleasant and other time they are disappointing. I have had a few along the way that were not very welcomed,but able to go along with it. When we get Drs. that don't agree then it may be time to get a little concerned. There is nothing wrong with venting. If it was I would have been kicked off here a long time ago. John0 -

CR stands for Complete Response or remission and PR stands for Partial Response or Remission I believe John. Then I think PFS is Progression Free Survival.
That's about it with my knowledge.0
