Got some really good news from the doc last night! The CEA tumor marker that they use to gauge the effectiveness of the chemo has dropped from a high of 126 (before chemo started), down to 8.3! A "normal" cancer free person would have a number 3.0 or below. So, all of the pain and agony of the side effects has been worth it. I start back on the next round next Wednesday. We're going with a minimal dose and see how my body reacts. If OK, we'll keep raising the pill count till I start having bad reactions again. Looks like 3 more rounds, then scans and then maybe surgery. If they do the surgery all at once (colon and liver) it'll be a few weeks to recover. I'll get some extra time off to fully heal and then back on the chemo to make sure it's all gone. It's looking promising right now!
