MRoadrunner

Thank you for sharing your journey with us. I am interested in seeing how you are doing today. I have just begun the process of this 3 months ago so all the info that you have provided and your fight in all this has been a great help to me. God Bless you in your journey!

Hi. New to this site. I also have sclc extensive stage diagnosed 2/11/13. This week I finally finish my carboplatin etoposide treatment.
It sounds like you have had quite the treatment in your ER and with your oncologist. I can't believe you were even given an expiration date. I have tried to get an idea from my onc who avoids answering by saying everyone is different. Yes I know that but with what has been done so far where are we. Waiting to see what a ct scan yesterday shows. I have an appt this morning so we will see. Take care. Beth

Hi M roadrunner, just checking up on you. Looks like you're still fighting the fight. Just wanted to say hey someone is thinking about you. :-)

I love you sister!

It's good to see your getting better. This is a tough road we are on so keep positive and take it one day at a time. Good luck and I'll keep praying for all of us will slc.

Congraulations! Happy to hear that great report. I had mine 4/15 and had similar results. Keepin the faith.

My last PCI treatment was March 26. It has been strange since all the side effects showed up after that. I lost my hair for a second time (no biggy didn't have much), like you I had a dull headache and for the last week fatigue. I've also been battleing alergies which turned into a sinus infection. Today is the first day that I feel half way decent. Hope you are doing the best that you can be.

i love your sense of humor. LOL on your hair color tale.

Hey, I was just wondering how you are doing with the PCI? Are you done with it?

I am starting my PCI today. I had my last chemo in Jan. and after the last PET scan found out that my cancer is in remission. After consolutation with my oncologist and the radiation oncologist they decided on 10 PCI treatments to help pevent any brain tumors. Thanks for sharing your experiences and I hope that you stay positive and let's kick cancers a$$ together.
