Hello friends. Sorry to fall off the face of the earth there for a bit. I have some good excuses -- I've been helping to launch a new business for my employer, I've finished work on my bands next album, and of course I have my adorable family with whom I try to spend a little bit of time. Oh, and I also play a fair amount of golf. Poorly.
Not to bury the lede [sic], recent bloodwork (last week) shows that I remain squeaky clean. So that's good!
I will post something more detailed on my decision as to where to be treated in the coming weeks, but as of now I think I'm going to return to UAMS per schedule, but go to Mt. Sinai in NYC in January as a second opinion at this stage in my treatment so that I can get the perspective of Dr. Barlogie and see his new location. I don't think it's possible for me to choose one or the other until I see the center in New York and assess the degree to which BB can continue to monitor and treat me in the manner that he did at UAMS. Meanwhile, I do have a tremendous sense of continuity with his former colleagues in Little Rock to consider.
It's a high class problem, seven years after diagnosis, to be around mulling this over!
I've been traveling a lot for work and I'm not sure if I'll have time to update before I get all my appointments scheduled, but that should happen before the end of the year (it certainly BETTER as I'm planning to see them both in January) and I will update again at that time, or earlier if events merit.
Happy holidays in advance to all of you!

Wonderful news on all fronts with your life! Always good to hear the good!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for this update. Good to hear that you have lots of other positive things going on in your life. Look forward to update in January. Good luck with new album.
ReplyDeleteGood to hear from you. I too have considered following Bart to Mt. Sinai, however NYC is very expensive and with possible stem cell transplant and time there it would be cost prohibitive. I have always received great care in LR and have great confidence in Dr. Z
ReplyDeleteHope all remains clear for you....and keep up the good research , a lot of us rely on it and enjoy your insights. Damn Good pies, by the way is a great pizza!!!
Amen to the Dam Good Pies!!!!!
DeleteMy strategy will be to visit NYC for my next visit with Dr. B. (I've been CR and MRD negative since 2009 and am on yearly visits) this coming summer. If I don't like the set up I will either revert to LR or do something local. I agree about the expense of NYC but for me the air fare will be much cheaper and that should offset some (but probably not all) of the increase. We'll see how it goes.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the update Nick. I decided to follow up with Dr. B at Mt. Sinai, saw him two weeks ago. It's quite different from LR for sure...but it was a great visit. NY is more convenient for me in terms of travel and after worrying about a slow rise in my light chain number over the past few months I realized I wanted his opinion first and foremost. Results take a little longer to return (as they send samples out for MRD and gene array), but overall I was pleased. The biggest surprise was when Dr. Jagannath performed my BMB. :)
ReplyDeleteHi Jody - would you mind telling us how the experience was different from LR? Did you find the experience to be overall positive? Does Dr. B seem to have access to the same level of resources as at LR? Thanks!

I'm 55-year-old from Korean, I was diagnosed with second-stage liver cancer following a scheduled examination to monitor liver cirrhosis. I had lost a lot of weight. A CT scan revealed three tumors; one in the center of my liver in damaged tissue and two in healthy portions of my liver. No chemotherapy or radiotherapy treatment was prescribed due to my age, the number of liver tumors. One month following my diagnosis I began taking 12 (350 point) Salvestrol supplements per day, commensurate with my body weight. This comprised six Salvestrol Shield (350 point) capsules and six Salvestrol Gold (350 point) capsules, spread through the day by taking two of each capsule after each main meal. This level of Salvestrol supplementation (4,000 points per day) was maintained for four months. In addition, I began a program of breathing exercises, chi exercises, meditation, stretching and stress avoidance. Due to the variety of conditions that I suffered from, I received ongoing medical examinations. Eleven months after commencing Salvestrol supplementation But all invalid so I keep searching for a herbal cure online that how I came across a testimony appreciating Dr Itua on how he cured her HIV/Herpes, I contacted him through email he listed above, Dr Itua sent me his herbal medicine for cancer to drink for two weeks to cure I paid him for the delivering then I received my herbal medicine and drank it for two weeks and I was cured until now I'm all clear of cancer, I will advise you to contact Dr Itua Herbal Center On Email...drituaherbalcenter@gmail.com.

Herpes is a sexually transmitted virus that primarily infects the mouth and the genitals. It is transmitted by bodily fluids – penetration isn’t required for transmission, oral-oral or oral-genital contact will suffice.I WAS ONCE HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS patient, I have HSV-I genitally and I'm one of the rare cases where I was infected by sexual contact. The person who infected me was unaware that he had it, and he tested negative on a blood test (he probably got it from his mother at birth and never had an outbreak in his life).I'm sure I have HSV-I (they did a culture of the fluid from the sores i had during my initial outbreak). So it is possible to contract HSV-I by asymptomatic asexual contact, so please people talk about this and prevent anyone else from getting it, I'm kind of going through something. Four years ago my love and I both had an OB and when I got the blood work done it came back negative. We were happy in the relationship so I learned to accept it and never really bothered to get tested again. Now, that we broke up I decided to get tested again. I came back negative for both HSV-1 and HSV-2 (got the news!) and have not had an OB since the initial one four years ago. My X on the other hand has had a few small outbreaks and never came back positive for HSV-1.Only the help of Dr Afrid where able to help me out with is Root and Herbs, if you are having any type of this disease or infection like HIV,CANCER OR ANY disease kindly email doctor Afrid for cure:( drafridherbalhome@gmail.com ) or Whatsapp him on +2349057260738.
