September update

September 22, 2025

It’s been a bit so a short update here. Short version: currently stable, minus a pesky tumor in my C1.

I had a PET scan earlier this month. I met with my oncologist today and the imaging didn’t show any change. I’ve been feeling pretty well lately so that is a good sign. My tumor markers keep climbing which is worrisome but there is no evidence prompting a change in medication since my imaging doesn’t show anything. I’ll continue on Enhertu for the next 3 months.

I do have a tumor in my C1 and compared to June it’s a bit more active. It’s possible that this is the reason for the rising tumor markers – it’s hard to say. I’m having radiation on the C1 (started today). More on that later.

Overall, I’m trying to stay active and have balance in my life. I think that’s hard for all of us, cancer is just one more thing to navigate.

We are officially in fall – hopefully you had a great summer and fall is off to a good start.

Onward!

Grateful for walking paths from the cancer center. I took a walk before my appointment today.
