Results of the Bone Scan

The results of the bone scan on February 1st are in. The report was very good.

I still have a cancerous lesion on a bone (I'm not exactly sure where), but that lesion has not changed since July. There was still no evidence of a tumor from the CT scan in January.

My chemotherapy has been changed to quarterly. I will do my next chemo session some time in March. This is called maintenance chemotherapy, and I'm happy to be on maintenance.

I feel great. I walk without any pain, and the swelling in my right foot is now minimal, even at the end of a busy day.

The bone scan did discover that I have a fractured 7th rib. I had no idea. Just like my broken elbow last August, it will require no treatment.

God is good, and I will be around through the middle of 2010 at least. ;-)
