Hello, Since February and again last week Brent had his scans and continues to be stable and they think one of his tumors in his lungs is completely gone. He is now on his 9th month and the rash is managable. He has some fatique but able to do most anything he wants to. As part of the treatment they wanted to test the tissue again for mutation changes and decided to go into the groin this time as they thought that the lymph nodes that had shown up in the scans would be easier to reach than the lungs. Well the proceedure never got and melanoma out of t
Hello, Since February and again last week Brent had his scans and continues to be stable and they think one of his tumors in his lungs is completely gone. He is now on his 9th month and the rash is managable. He has some fatique but able to do most anything he wants to. As part of the treatment they wanted to test the tissue again for mutation changes and decided to go into the groin this time as they thought that the lymph nodes that had shown up in the scans would be easier to reach than the lungs. Well the proceedure never got and melanoma out of those spots…. only lymph fluid and they tried two different spots that showed up on the scans!!!!. So we have to try to biopsy the lung tumors in December. Interesting… his doctor was out of the country last week and we are going to talk to him to go over the scans and results this week. Good luck to all of you and thanks for being there. We read every post.
