    Awesome news about no tumor
    Glad you have no pain also. Sorry about the thrush, ugh I kept getting that too and it's horrible.
    So how did you get the news about no sign of the tumor? I had to wait for 3 months after treatment until I could find out. Longest wait of my life I think.

    No un-official sign of the tumor. The induction (the Doc told me last week that he was giving me the strongest Chemo he gives) is designed to shrink/eliminate the infected tissues and to catch any free ranging cells that may have escaped the encapsulated area.

    So, in my case my lymph nodes have shrunk to completely normal and, looking visually with a scope, no evidence of my tumor. Also, I went from a 5-8 on the pain scale to a zero. I do this one more time then on to traditional Chemo/Rads.
