It's official: Goliath's back in his 3rd carnation

After a painfully long series of MRIs and PET scans, I've unfortunately discovered that the tumor is back for sure. It was uncertain in the MRI stages (which I guess is good considering the tumor should be VERY obvious on an MRI), but in the PET scan the contrast was definitely there. This giant's back to wreak a consequentially large amount of havoc on my life again. Two months go fast, huh?

Thankfully I have the best Doc squad on my side as of yet, and I'm planning on utilizing their efforts as much as possible. If my MGMT test comes back positive, then I could pull up some Temodar from the bottom of the Chemo barrel, and I should also be able to scrimp from a VEGF drug sampler that keeps tumors from sucking in arteries from it's surrounding area. There're other things that I can do yet, and if that doesn't work, then there's always the Antineoplastons. Let's just hope that this will work this time. Here we go again...
