more rechecks this afternoon

Hey everyone,

Rechecking the lung and chest wall down at Masonic today.  And it's suppose to snow.  Alrighty then, should be a fun trip.  I also want to bring up another issue that is important in understanding our dx's.  TUMOR PROFILING  This shows our specific DNA and RNA that could match up tx's in the future that could help us fight our specific dx's.  There isn't anything near me to do this as my dx is rare and not studied (researched) in our state.  TOO FEW.  But with the help of accoi I did find a resource to do it.  It is very exspensive, but some insurance companies will cover the labs services.  I'm a bit shook that this isn't offered as an option in the beginning of our journeys.  The more I research, the more I'm seeing advancements in this specific area for more personalized medical tx's.  I know in the beginning all I wanted was the cancer gone.  If I can explore and understand options for us and actually muddle my way through it, I feel it may help others in finding a cure.  This is different from histology (tissue type) which is important to know also.  Well enough of the medical lingo for this morning.  Will let you know how all of this progresses and what if anything this will help.  Have a great day.....as I will !    Katie
