This is the 3rd clear lung test in 7 months and hopefully we have a permanent pattern occurring here. Originally due to the high risk of metastases spread they are testing the lungs every 3 months and will do so for a further 18 months. This test was part of the start of the chemo regime and has confirmend that we are still in NED / Mets free status and we are all very happy about that.
I did pre-admittance at hospital for chemo today which went fine and I will be in hospital for first cycle from Wednesday to Saturday this week. The drugs that I am on include Doxorubicin (Red Devil) and ifosfamide and more details about the drugs, treatment and side effects can be found here.
My journey: Living with and overcoming Synovial Sarcoma. A rare and nasty Cancer. Not a how-to guide but ideas and observations during my experience so far. There are only a few SS survivors publishing and I've found their information helpful and reassuring. The site is also to update my wonderful supporters on my progress. Image above was pre-diagnosis by my daughter of the 'Alien Baby'. This tumour has been removed but the battle to eradicate the disease continues.
