Hello everyone,
Rob had his Pet/CT last week and although there are a couple of nodes close to the tumour that are enlarged, he doesn't have any evidence of anything, anywhere else.
Apparently his tumour is T3.
His treatment will start next week and an op in the new year.
Thanks to all of you for your support and caring.
Prayers and hugs
Marci

    GREAT NEWS!
    Marci,
    That is Soooooooooooooooooooooo great for you and rob!
    Now you can start planing the next step and where to go for treatment and surgery if you are not already at UPMC (LOL)

    I am SO very pleased to hear it is all localized.

    May God continue to bless your family.

    Glad you have information
    How wonderful that you finally have a diagnosis and a treatment plan. So much better than a jump into surgery without knowing.

    I'm glad that this is an operable EC. Prayers of strength and healing to you both!

    Stay Strong
    It is great to hear that you have a plan now. I will be one year from diagnosis in a couple of days and I look back on what I could have done better in the early days of treatment. Could have gotten ahead of or at least kept up with my fluid intakes and I could have made a better effort to stay active. Thats it. I spread the love around and gathered all the good wishes and prayers offered. I wish you the best.
