Appointment of 4-25-007

We went in to see Dr. Ison the Infectious Disease doctorat 6:00 am. He had a CT scan and a Chest Xray done . From the results of these two tests, we were told that it looks OK for Stefan to get OFF of the oral drug that he was on for over a year, twice a day. The one that was experimental and then became FDA approved, Posaconazole/ Noxafil. He no longer takes it for now. BUT we have to watch for signs incase......he gets a swelling in his face again like last time, or any itching in the face or sinus area, any redness, etc.

He is scheduled for another CT scan of the face /sinus area in one month again and then in three months.
But Stefan is happy to be off of that one drug for now. The only one he is still on for is for the cholesterol for when he had the 5bypass surgery done in Jan 2003.

So that was good news on this side. Next week on Tuesday May 1, 2007 we/he goes in for a bone biopsy to be done. This is his 3month check-up for the leukemia.
