9.23.13 doctor's appointment

 Hello, we are back from my appointment with Dr. Baeker.  I got the sutures out and was released to drive and go back to work on Wednesday.

Tom said the neurological exam was "perfect". I believe we have decided on a new course of action. Duke has a relatively new study, called Re-start, for recurrent glios. You may or may not remember, when I first went down there they did a Leukapheresis cultivating my white blood cells only to be amped up with a protein called Avastin.

I will need to go to Duke 4 weeks in a row to get this started, however after that I believe it is back to once a month. The Avastin I can receive at Tom's office once every 2 weeks. It takes about an hour or less each treatment.  Sorry Sarah no pictures.
