November 12, 2015.. We got good news today! The doctor said things look good and then he said "what more can I say". My myeloma marker numbers had improved some since the last time but the main thing to me was they had not gotten worse. In case you don't know, when we were here in July, the MRI showed a spot on one of my ribs in the back. It has been on my mind these four months but NOTHING showed up this time. They found no bone lesions at all. Before I started treatment, there were several lesions on my vertebrae and hip. I am so very thankful there was nothing there on the scans now.
I recorded the visit with the doctor and also with the nurse practitioner. The nurse practitioner went over all the tests before the doctor and I recorded her discussion as well as his. I thought I would add the audio to the blog but it is going just take too long to do it.
The doctor is keeping me on the same treatment I have been on. He said since I am doing so well on my current treatment (Kyprolis and Revlimid), he wants to continue with the same treatment.
I guess it goes without saying, we are very relieved and thankful. I want to thank each of you for your prayers and concern.
We will head home tomorrow morning!
Praise God for such great news!!!! Continued prayers for continued great news!!!! Love to you both & are so happy for you both!!! We'll see you when you get home & prayers for safe journey home.
