My wife Cind Has just been diagnosed with Leiomyosarcoma. She has been dealing with some leg pain for a couple months,so we went to the doctor about 1 1/2 months ago,and they sent her to physical therapy. Well she went a few times,and it wasnt getting better so we consulted another doctor,and they did a MRI and found a mass in her pelvis. They assured us that it was probably nothing and sent us home saying they were gonna perform a fine needle asperate biopsy of the tissue. Well we had the biopsy done and waited for results. Two nites later,before we had the biopsy results,she woke up in the middle of the night short of breath and wheezing. She went to the ER and had a chest X-RAY. The results were shocking. She has sooo many tumors in her lungs,they cant count them all. She was admitted immediatley to the hospital and started radiation immediately on a tumor in her bronchial tube. She had 5 treatments of radiation,and went through 48hours of continuous Chemo with adryomyocin,and DITC chemo drugs. Well she is breathing better now,and she hasent shown ANY side effects of chemo. None!! She has coughed up several blood clots in the mornings,and gets stronger everyday. Am I fooling myself to think that this is working? She needs to go back to the hospital on November 18th for another 48 hour continuous drip of chemo. If there is anyone out there that can help me please let me know what you think?
Thanks in advance,
Troy
