Not good.....‏ (From Toni)

Hi all,

Just a quick update on me & my cancer..... just found out yesterday that my 'numbers', which have been slowly creeping back up little by little.... took a pretty big jump up during this last month.  That's not a good thing.

My doc started me on a third type of meds yesterday, which is s shot in my butt once a month.  It is a further estrogen killer & may be redundant to use with the one I've been taking, but it's something to try.... we want those CEA numbers to start going back down like they did every month last year.  They've gone up steadily now for the last 8 months.  Again, not a good thing.  It is a sign that some of the cancer cells are escaping treatment & growing somewhere.

Please continue to keep you fingers crossed for me, and/or pray.  Thanks.
Hugs, Toni


From Myrna:

Oh, shoot! And just in time to worry through Christmas. Have a happy holiday in spite of the news. We will be praying for you! One question, however, are you still feeling well? If you are, that should be a good sign, right?

Lots of love, Myrna
