Today was a big day in determining if the chemo is working or not. Well, it is working but to what extent it not completely clear. My counts dropped from 3300 to 2800 (500 points). This is good but not great. However, it is better then staying the same or going up so in all these results are positive. I have not spoken with my doctor yet and I am not sure what he thinks about it but I would imagine I will continue to take the Nexavar for another couple weeks to a month to see if the counts continue to drop. But I must wait for the doctor to confirm this.
I am just relieved that the counts did not go up. The constant daily grind on your mind or wondering if this stuff is working can sometimes get to you, especially when you are not working. I have nothing else to fixate on.
Well look for an update tomorrow on what the big Doc said.
