Brivanib didn't work.


Ready for the great news...... The tumors are growing. The clinical trial for Brivanib didn't work. 

Doc wrote me a prescription for a drug called Sirolimus.  It's taped to my kitchen cabinet. It has bad side affects and destroys the immune system. I am not sure if I want to take it. I walk past it and just stare. I already hate it and I haven't even tried it.  

I asked Doc about my other options. He said  clinical trials are not good for me right now. He told me I  should  talk to my other Dr's about surgery, chemotherapy & radiation.  I have appointments lined up for the next couple of weeks.

When is this going to end?

I am thinking of you. Let's get together soon. Just to scream at these stupid tumors!

I'm so sorry. I know how disappointed you must feel. But, your tumors were stable for almost 7 months.. That's pretty good.
I am on the stupid placebo and am really afraid at what tomorrow's scan will show.
