Cycle 2, Week 4

No Abraxane this week, instead an MRI and consult with Kev's neurosurgeon. The results from the MRI were good - no metastases. Kev did ask about the tumor that is subcutaneous and on the back of his skull. It's been there over a year, and it has continued to grow even through the treatments. It is both bothersome, for sleeping, and troublesome in that we're concerned it may start growing into the bone. His neurosurgeon said he could easily remove it - day surgery. We just need to get the OK from Kev's oncologist.

CT scans planned for Tuesday and a meeting with the oncologist on Wed. As long as the CT scans indicate there is some positive effect, we should be continuing with the next cycle of Abraxane & Nexavar treatments.
