Another Friday, another Erbitux round. My doctor thinks the reduced dosage of the experimental drug is agreeing with me, insofar as my labs are now where they should be. I have my first scan as part of the experiment on the 6th of March and I am hoping to see a Partial Response or Stability reading.

It appears the side effects to this study are manageable, now I just have to hope it's actually doing something -- and if it is, that it KEEPS doing something. Turns out, our little cancer cells are pretty adaptive -- drugs like these hopefully inhibit the cancer's ability to feed even if they mutate -- at least for awhile is the hope.

So, fingers crossed, but I do want to say out loud (lest I appear unappreciative to the gods of luck and fate) that I appreciated having a nice, quiet, uneventful, non "huh, we've never seen that in a human subject" week.

Thanks to my followers and well wishers. I hope you are all doing well and I wish nothing but the best for us all.
