(F$#@ Cancer)^3!!!

Yup, it's apparently back. I have to admit, I've been expecting this for about a month. Since the last MRI. In fact, I postponed this MRI until after my kayaking trip with my brother and nephew so I could delay the inevitable. Yup, the summer appears to be over.

So what's next? Well, I'm almost definitely heading back under the knife. I guess the next couple of days will be spent pondering different clinical trials, chemo methods, radiation, etc. Anyone got some other good options? Cause the vaccine didn't seem to fix me.

Does this suck? Yup.

  2. Hi, I've followed your post since researching information for my husband's returning GBM. Have you looked into DCA? (dichloroacetate) You can find information online at the Medicor Cancer centre in Toronto. It has been found to be effective in some GBM patients. They also have some other cutting edge therapies for GBM. Another option is to have your tumor tested for EGFV111. If it is positive, Tarceva has been found to be effective in some cases. Good luck to you...I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers!

  5. Argh. ARGH! I knew something was up when Sheri cancelled plans with me yesterday. Was hoping she was just being flaky. I say to cancer what Loula says to dirty pigeons on the playground: "GET"!

  6. I forgot one more place. Have you ever looked into the Burzynski Clinic? I know it is very controversial, but we actually got to talk to two patients of his, one of whom had a GBM and is still alive 6 years later. It is expensive and it doesn't always work but when it does, it seems to work permanently. email me if you have any questions or want more information. (coloradotylers@gmail.com)
