in Kidney Cancer #1

Had my 2nd round of scans yesterday. Feeling great and pretty excited to get the results tomorrow! I know that up to the first 3  or 4 scans on imuno therapy may show that the tumors may seem that they are growing. But first scan largest in my right lung shrank 60%.

    Clinical Trial?

    Ed, I understand you're on a clinical trial. Can you share what it is?

    Scan

    Scan results showed the stuff on my spine is growing in a very bad direction. Everything else was fine but because of teh growth on my spine I am out of the Clinical trial. It was Nivolumab and Ililimuab. Now I am being put on Cabometyx. Looks like quite a few of the Votrient side effects. Oh well. I could use to lose a few pounds. And white hair is white hair. Had too much time away from the bathroom. Me and the toilet seat will be reacquainted. I was really looking forward to this set of scans too........

    tough to hear

    I was hoping for good results, Ed.  As you know there has been some discussion on this board about Cabo and the success people are having with it.  I'm hopeful you have a good run with it.
