'Sleeper'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Thank you all for the good wishes.
I had CT scans and bone scan on Friday. I had the consult to review results with the oncologist today.
Summary:
1) Unchanged retroperitoneal and left iliac chain nodal metastases.
2) No new or enlarging lymphadenopathy.
3) Stable osseous metastatic disease without discrete new lesion.
4) PSA is still undetectable.
That is all good news. The meds I am taking are doing what I need them to do. The side effects are no fun, but I am coping.
That is all good news
Excellent news indeed!
I’m glad the results are looking good, dcp.
Stable, unchanged, I like the sound of those words.
Glad to hear most of that, dcp.
Glad it's working! Sorry about the side effects.
Yay for stability, dcp!
Attending JZ's memorial in anything more than spirit won't be possible for me, but I'll be thinking of her and all of you.
Same. We'll be in Oklahoma that weekend for my niece's high school graduation, but I'll raise a glass in your direction.
By far, one of the most fucked up parts of the last several years is the sinking, bone-deep understanding that, when the apocalypse comes, yes, you will still have to go to your job, and yes your landlord will still expect you to pay your rent.
Stability sounds mighty good, dcp!

Right? You'll be on the freeway with hellfire raining down around you, and manage to call work (even though cell service should be down; let's chalk this up to the deal that Verizon made with the devil), and your boss replies "This'll be your third time being late in a month. You know that means I'm going to have to write you up" as you hear buildings collapsing in the background.
I don’t know, I might get laid off and not have to go in.
I finished work and lay down to think about what I want to do about dinner and remembered I had not filed my taxes yet. So I fired up the H&R Block app on my phone to see how far I could get without needing to actually sit up and turn on a laptop and actually did it all! What a world.
