Changing meds
My scan from last week was not good so they are taking me off the clinical trial of Avastin and Velcade and having me switch to Sutent. Sutent is a "first line" drug of kidney cancer but can carry some difficult side effects. When I was diagnosed last year it is what they prescribed for me while recommending that I go to Dr. Quinn to see if I qualified for IL-2. I'll start in a couple weeks. I could get none or all of the side effects but a couple would be the most common. Well at least I don't have to get IVs put on me twice a week any longer!
