Hi everyone,
I just came back from the onc and all is good. I am having a pretty remarkable response to the Trafilnar, my ear, all my scalp mets, etc. are clearing up nicely. My blood work is good.
The brain mets are having the pretty standard effect, anger, etc. and I really didn’t have a clue about where I was (my husband was driving) until he drove right up to the door. I know the office is going to be looking into some kind of neuro-psychologist who might help me navigate things better. My work won’t clear me for at least 2 more weeks, but I know that’s a good thing.

Wonderful news, Karen! If Traflinar (dabrafenib) is working on your body, it is probably working on your brain, too. It just takes longer.
I seem to recall that you took Zelboraf and it worked for you. You are one of the first who is post zelboraf and now on dabrafenib. It's so exciting to see that you are having such a good response!
Keep on keepin' on, Karen! You're doing great!
