The nurse for my infusion commented at one point while we were waiting for the Avastin that the pharmacy for the trial study drugs always seem to take longer than the ones from the regular pharmacy. I didn't know that there were two separate pharmacies. I guess I know now that people there for regular infusions not associated with a trial usually don't have to wait as long as me... When the nurse finally got the Avastin she brought it over and commented to me that she was just looking at my scans and they looked really good. She seemed really excited about that. DH and I thought it was a little strange that she had been looking at my scans but maybe her excitement means that it is not uncommon at my stage in treatments to have the cancer growing back at this point. I'm hesitant to ask my doctors or nurses anything about that because I don't want to get any false hopes up. Plus they will probably say that there is no way to know at this point whether it will come back or not, we just take it one scan and test at a time.
The infusion went pretty quickly and then we were on our way. All of the hospitals up near Huntsman are connected through tunnels so we decided to try and make our way through the various hospitals to get back to the Trax station instead of using the shuttle. We were able to find our way without too much difficulty and we made it to the Trax station just as the train was getting ready to pull out! It was perfect timing. We made it hope relatively quickly and got there before the younger kids got home from school.
