Iva met with the spine surgeon this morning. He looked at her scans and informed her that the spot on her L1 vertebra is not a metastasis! It is an hemangioma, not cancer! Sweet day.
Tomorrow is back to the thoracic surgeon to see if last Friday's CT scan supports surgery. If her lung tumors are stable (no progression since the prior scans), then surgery will be scheduled. She has been off chemo for about 2 months now, so we will see.
More to come tomorrow . . .
Good to hear it! Sending you best wishes and positive energy.
