Update 2


----- Original Message -----

Back from the oncologist.

A slew of tests scheduled. A MUGA (MUltiple Gated Acquisition scan) to get a baseline for Karen's heart function on Saturday (yes, you read that right, Saturday). A bone scan on Monday to check for any spread to there. A PET/CT scan on Tuesday, to check for other tumors. Then the port installed on Wednesday. Busy, busy week, a second if we include this one.

Chemo starts Monday, 2/26. Dense dose, every 2 weeks for three months to start. Need to do more research there.

That's what I know right now. A tiring day today even with the good news earlier.
