CT shows that my tumors haven't changed size since the last scan. I finished chemo a week ago. My oncologist is giving me 6 weeks to heal then we will meet with a radiologist. The next treatments will either be radioiblasion (go in with a needle and cook the tumors individually) or embolism (go in and cut off the blood supply to each tumor). Either way it's going to require an over night stay at the hospital. Once it's over I should be cancer free (it's possible to have it pop up somewhere else but for now...). It's good news. I was hoping that the last round of chemo would have been the end. I will take this if a hospital visit will be the end of it. Thanks for all the support.
 
Great stuff Mr. Balls. Glad to hear that there is a light at the end of the tunnel, even if it does require another hospital stay.
 
I just wanted to keep up over here. I ended up having two rounds of chemo embolization. It dumps a controlled amount of chemo right on the spots and then closes it so it can't go anywhere. I go in on the 3rd of August for my next CT to see if this is working. If it has significantly shrunk the lesions then they will go in ,again ,with the themal embolism and freeze what is remaining. I will try to update better.
 
Great news. Thanks for keeping us updated. My wife and I are still keeping you in our regular thoughts.
