Saw the concologist yesterday. The chemo I am receiving is not working. The tumor has not shrunk and seems to be growing. It is now affecting my right kidney. They tried to put a stent in the right when they were in to change the left. But the tube was too swollen to allow it.
The oncologist wants to try one more chemo drug. Supposedly this one will not hurt the kidneys.
When I asked him what my prognoses is if that didn't work, he said. My prognoses is I have about 1yr more or less. Depending on how aggressive the cancer is and if the new drug can slow it down or not.
So I guess if nothing changes for the good in a month or two it will be time to start getting rid of motorcycle and tools. as I will only get worse.
I have 1 project I have to finish so will do what I can on that for now.
