Not for sure exactly what my cancer doctor was talking about today [View all]

Was gonna have him write it down but got sidetracked. He was saying some number
in healthy people is 2 and below, prior to my auto-immune treatments I was a 24, now
I'm down to a 6 and talked like I might be ready for surgery to remove the tumor.

So he scheduled a new CT scan for Monday and Wednesday for the Ear Nose & Throat
doctor to put his scope inside me and see if the lymph node has shrunk away from my
carotid artery.

Anyone know what he was talking about and is this a really good thing? Thanks, Ks
