May 11th Appointment

I had my 4 month follow up on May 11th and the results were very uplifting. The new MRI images revealed a slight diminishing of the tumor. My Doctor was quite positive of this because, according to her, the MRI "slices" were lined up exactly with the original images that she uses for comparison. This match gave her the best possible advantage to be able to make those comparisons and come to an undeniable conclusion. I am quite pleased with the outcome! She has also, at my request, prescribed a new anti-depressant for me called Effexor that a dear friend of mine is currently taking and is extremely happy with. Time will tell if it has the same effect on me.......but I'm hopeful :~). My next appointment will be in September and will include an MRI with profusion (the one that takes 3 hours). Fingers crossed that it may yield some even more encouraging results.
