Therefore, my next round of treatment was canceled and I am home now. The physically noticable tumor(s) at the base of my neck on my left side and in my left shoulder have begun to cause me some pain.<br /> <br /> A brief discussion with my oncologist and family about what to do NEXT lead to first determining what type of cancer has manifested in my neck and shoulder. A biopsy will be done next week...<br /> <br /> I have tried 6 different treatments to date. The complexity of my diagnosis has no specific treatment for the combination of 2 general types of cancer (melanoma and lymphoma) with two variations of each. (melanoma + melanoma with neuroendocrine differentiation AND low grade and grade 'B' lymphoma).<br /> <br /> What it boils down to at this point is there isn't a treatment to try that has any real promise. So, the focus will be on <span style="font-style: italic;">"pain management"</span> for now...<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20411984-114338206260673689?l=chrismausmusic.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>chrismausmusichttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00561205397475764349noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20411984.post-1139087430192344212006-02-04T13:05:00.000-08:002006-02-04T13:10:30.200-08:00I figure I better post something "here" just to let people know that I do check the comments...
