Living, breathing scientific experiment log update:

Really not a heck of a lot to add -- things are stable and I have another CT scan due on or around 24 April -- I will let you all know when I have some results.

I am both excited and frightened of these scans. My last scan showed things are working well, so I'm excited, but one must always be mindful that things can turn and in a hurry so I'm a bit frightened as well, haha. Either way I have about 2 weeks before I have to really worry about it.

Skin rash has settled down considerably -- my experiment doc is happy that my body is, generally speaking, adapting to the Cetuximab. I have no symptoms from the lung mets, although I am probably some time away from that.

So, really nothing to say but I did promise to check in more and I hate to disappoint my fans -- I'm really only up on this stage today because of all of .... wait, that's from my grammy acceptance speech, should I ever win one.

I'll post again when there is news but for now, I suppose no news is good news!
