Not perfect
I saw the oncologist this morning and he said he was "cautiously optimistic." That wasn't what I wanted to hear. I wanted him to do a happy dance, say I'd done it again and I'd probably never be hit again. Okay, so what he really said was that while the reduced tumor marker was encouraging, he wants to see a trend. That means several readings of down, down, down.
My hope is that now that I'm on board with lifestyle changes - no sugar, higher vitamin D levels, exercise (which also "burns" glucose), antioxidants and whatever else I learn about in the coming months - he will get his wish.
The dietician told me that anyone who has ever been diagnosed with cancer should eat ten servings of fruits and veggies every day. Is that even physically possible???? I'm working on it....
