No New Growth!

I'm exhausted. Monday, I conquered a battery of neuro-tests. Today, I woke at the crack of dawn, was poked and prodded for an IV, finished the MRI, and had the results of the scans. No new growth! Woo hoo!!! During the radiologist oncology appointment the doctor noticed multiple occasions of erratic twitching on the left side of my face. He said that it could be a small seizure. If the twitching doesn't go away in the next 10 days they want me to follow up with a EEG.

After the rad onc meeting, I had just enough time for lunch, and then back to testing for the rest of the day.

The stress of the past few weeks has been hard. I've been doing the old, foot in front of the other trick. Finally, I have 90 days of freedom.

It still hasn't completely sunk in that I'm clean and recovering nicely without any visible tumor growth. I'm going to need to decompress for a while.
