According to the results of my PET Scan, my tumor is shrinking! Take that Little Hodgy!
After only one week of treatments, all of the tumors have shrunk. In my original scan back in December, my largest tumor in my chest was 7.7 x 5.3cm with an SUV of 15.2 (healthy cells have an SUV around 1). It currently measures 6.0 x 3.8cm with an SUV of 11.7. My neck tumor went from 6.8 x 2.5cm with an SUV of 10.5 to now currently measuring 5.8 x 2.2cm with an SUV of 5.9.
That's a lot of numbers, I know. But the real take away? Cancer is losing this battle and that makes all this shit worth it.
