I met with the hematologist at MD Anderson Tuesday to address the blood clot my doctor saw from my last scan. And the good news is that I do NOT have a blood clot! He pulled up the images and although it appears to look like a small clot, the hematologist said it was part of the tumor that has worked it's way into my blood vessel. He called it a tumor thrombus, and that small pieces of the tumor have sort of congregated together. So they are obviously not going to put me on blood thinners since there is no clot to worry about!
On a quick side note, I had treatment #3 of this cycle this week and my blood counts were great once again! I haven't had to get neupogen injections in 3 weeks now!! :)
