I am so sorry I can't remember your handle but I just have to say THANK YOU!!!!! I reached out to your oncologist and he still has a couple of HAI pumps left and is switching to a new one. I have reached out to so many centers to no avail and Thank God this doctor is doing this in our state. We are scheduling a consultaion in September after my husbands Pet Scan is done. OMG whoever you are I could hug you right now. Thank you so much!

    Butt is here.... I am glad he

    Butt is here.... I am glad he has HAIP s left. I finished 3 cycles so far with the pump. I did gain some weight and my face got a bit rounded because of steroids that are infused togerher with the pump chemo but it is more cosmetic. So, we shall see how things go. I do believe Dr. Bloomston is a good one. Good luck to you!

    Butt!

    I should have remembered that one! Glad your cycles are going well. The moon face will subside. I take high dose prednisone all the time to keep my angioedema swells to a minimum, it oftens involves my airway so I don't have much of a choice. You can always ask for a water pill if it bothers you. My GP will give them to me once in a blue moon. Thanks again for the recomondation I am so thrilled and my husband is too! I will finally get off his back about going to New York!

    Wonderful

    That's why this group is so great.  You can ask and you shall get an answer.  I'm so glad this is a positive outcome for you.  Thanks Butt for helping.  It's good that people that don't post often - post when they are much in demand.  Awesome Butt you gave someone much help.
