Results of CT and MRI Scans

This is Fabian here posting the results of my CT and MRI scans. What we found out today is that I will still have to do three days of chemo followed by ten days of radiation treatment. After that I will have to wait six weeks until I go for surgery to remove all the area that they want in my ankle. A down side of the surgery is that they will have to remove two tendants from my foot which will give me limited mobility in my foot. I will not be able to lift my foot as easily, which they may give me a brace to compensate. They may also take a tendent from the back of my leg and attach it to the front of my foot to give me more mobility in my foot. I have to go back to Calgary on Wednesday to get prepared for the chemo and radiation treatments. They want to take a scan of my foot to see which position is ideal for the radiation treatments. They also want to make a cast of my foot so that it is always in the same position for each radiation treatment. They have not finalized a date to start the chemo and radiation treatments but it sounds like it will be at the end of this month. That is all that I know for now. Will post anything new that comes about.
