Hey Phil

Hi Phil,
Just wondering if you started the Cotara trial yesterday? I was just checking in to see how you are doing. Let us know when you are feeling up to it.

Re: Hey Phil

Turned out the first batch of the drug from the drug company didn't pass internal quality control standards, so the imaging dose session has to be postponed a week while they make another. Not the hosital or doctor's fault at all, but it kind of sucked to be admitted, then discharged the same night, less than 12 hours before the surgery was supposed to go underway. But my presurgical MRI looked the same as the last, so that is good.
So although the first part (imaging dose) is delayed, the therapudic dose should still happen on time. So no real treatment delays, hooray. They had to shuffle some testing dates and stuff down and squish the two visits closer - I have two seperate inpatient procedures.
I won't be done with both until dec. 2nd or so, and have about 4 weeks of weekly followup tests. Once the procedure is over, I'll probably post some details about it and what it was like and so forth. Family will have to visit me here for turkey day, so you can imagine i won't be out near the internet, to say the least.
