Well, the results of the CT scan were not what we had hoped for. It appears that many lymph nodes are considerably larger, the distal esophogus opening is thicker (probably the tumor), and a worsening of the liver is noticably. It seems that the last 3 rounds of chemo has not touched the cancer and it has progressed considerably.
The doctor gave Bill a prescription for an antibiotic that is supposed to relax the esophogus so that at least the saliva would go through. Unfortunately, it is no longer made! You would think the doctor would know that. We're waiting for a substitute to be chosen.
Tuesday we have an appointment with the cancer doctor. Please pray with us, and especially for Bill, as he has decisions to make regarding his treatment.
