Shrinkage

Three weeks of treatment finished, three more to go. Many have asked how I feel. This past week was difficult but has nothing to do with my cancer!! Last Tuesday I tweaked my back bending over the dishwasher incorrectly. Please everyone remember to engage your core muscles, and bend your knees. The back is better, but not best yet. Arrgh!
The medication for my cough has helped a great deal. I can talk again and only cough occassionally.
Last Monday the doctor said my tumor had gotten a little smaller. On Friday, the Tech said there was substantial shrinkage. What does that mean? And, what is the difference? Today, I saw the doctor again and got to ask questions. She showed me several CT slice pictures with before treatment, and as of today. My unprofessional eyes could definitely see some shrinkage on one of the slices, but substantial shrinkage on a different slice. Any shrinkage is good shrinkage!
