Spleen embolisation
 |
Mar 28, 2013 - 9:45 am
My spleen embolisation was successful. Platelets were up to 630 so I was able to get full dose of irrotecan. Had to skip one treatment while I was recovering. CEA doubled I was hoping for a chemo break. I've been doing this so long but guess that is not going to happen now. |
