Well, a lot has been happening. Here is what I know today:

The R-ICE is not accomplishing what we need so Dr. Doty wants to change poison. This one will be a bit more caustic so I will receive it in the hospital. I check in Monday at 7 AM and will be there at least until Thursday morning. We will repeat this every 3 weeks until we get the necessary results, then I will move to San Antonio for SCT.

The poison cocktail I will start Monday is Vincristine, Adriamycin, Cytoxan, and Mesna. I think there is another ingredient or two, but I don't know what they are. Some of these were in the R-CHOP mix I took last year, though I suspect the quantity has been increased.

I'll post again when I know more.

As always, thanks for your prayers and good wishes.
