Responding
I had a check-up / lab work this morning with Dr. Limentani. He was very encouraged, saying that I'm definitely responding to the Interferon. The tell-tale rash is not as visible as it was even 4 months ago, even with extra sensitivity from the cold weather. Whoo-hoo!
Rachelle and I have been cautious about the treatment's effectiveness, keeping our hopes in check. We're grateful that it appears the treatments are working and that we've had our first confirmation to that end.
Dr. L is quick to defer to Dr. Foss's judgment and notes that he is not a CTCL expert. However, Dr. Foss did say that I/others would be able to observe the effects. I go see Dr. Foss on November 8. My question for her is if the effects are happening as quickly and as thoroughly as she expected.
Thanks for your prayers.
