Joined: Jul 2009 Posts: 31 | Ray the node seems to have shrunk way down. Ray would having a dose of Erbtux thrown in for good measure effect the waiting time. another thing that concerns me is that the initial PET showed a 9mm nodule on the right upper lung. Worried it could be growing during those nine weeks. Would the cisplatin have possibly shrunk that down?
