Due to what we think is nausea and vomiting from taxtotere, I got 3 weeks off of taxotere to let the dust settle. I'm very excited to have some time off of the big guns, although I still got the two antibody therapies on Tuesday. My tumor marker went up a little (20 points), so not the greatest news- suggests that we'll be shopping for a new big gun soon. Havalen will be a possibility.
Other than that, I am back to work! Its going well, although things are coming back to me very slowly. I have managed to do a few experiments and they have turned out well. Its been 2 years since I've worked so it is an adjustment. Especially since when I left, I never thought I'd come back or be alive to come back. So I didn't keep the best notes towards the end of my PhD. My official title is post-doctoral fellow, very fancy title. I am working hourly so that I can take time off when I need to for treatment or when I'm sick. Thanks for checking in. God bless.
