17 Mar - Bilirubin Not What We Hoped For
Sarah is still feeling pretty weak and not able to do much. Today Sarah got the results of her blood test and bilirubin was 5.3, well north of the 3.0 that we were hoping to get below. So I think our meeting with her oncologist tomorrow will be very important in understanding what we can do to fight progression. Our hope is that she can at least get a partial dose of Taxol to shrink some of the smaller tumors in her liver. That could open up some biliary ducts and improve the situation enough to increase the Taxol doses.
