Wow, 6 mo since my last post. That’s good news since it means I’m just busy with life. Celebrated 20th cancerversary in May. Still have lung and liver mets but they remain stable. Still taking Inlyta to keep growth at bay. Now that I’ve had cancer for 1/3 of my life, I’d definitely call it chronic!

Because scheduling is funny, I had my annual mammogram today. The tech told me results in 5 days. Two hours later, MyChart chirps that they are in and all is well. I’m liking this week so far.

Had my quarterly scans Fri. I see my onc tomorrow but already got my results thanks to Cleveland Clinic’s speedy radiologists. All is stable in liver and lungs, nothing new. Yay!
