But wait, there's more (again)...

Not sure of the complete results of my PET/CT but I have learned that I have new metastasis of cancer to my left hip, something like 3-4 spots but I am not sure how big they are. I will give you more information once I know. There is also a new spot in my neck, but I believe it is a lymph node that is not super concerning. The rest of my current lesions I believe are relatively stable, the focus was on the new metastasis so we did not really go into detail on the others. Like I said I still need to get more information from my doctor. He was assuring me that this does not mean the Nexavar isn't working, because the mets could be more extensive than they are, we don't really know. He is still going to look into what my other options are medication wise, and contact my radiation oncologist and some other doctors to consult with them. I don't know if they will just watch it, do surgery, do radiation, or some other treatment I don't know about yet. I will keep you updated as I learn more, but thanks for the thoughts and prayers. Happy Valentines Day!
