Going to NIH

0 Recommendations

I'll be at NIH Sept 21-24. I am doing scans, bloodwork and eye clinic all day on the 22nd. I have pretty much the whole day of the 23rd open and will be at OP 3 clinic on the 24th. I thought that if anyone else is going to be there at the same time maybe we could meet up.

Donna,

What do you do at the eye clinic since there isn't a study going on? Are they still following up on your eye tumor?

Just curious.

I am actually going to urology each year on an annual basis. I do see Dr. Chew when I'm there, she fits me in between my scans and stuff.

Dr. Chew is still following some of us and our treatments. So, she gets to see me and see how the eye is doing after radiation treatment. She also does a full retinal exam on both eyes which works out for me since I have been put on once a year exams with my local doctor, this works out so I'm actually seen every 6 months instead which gives me a little peace of mind that my good eye is being monitored more often.

I am starting the Sutent Study for my eye tumor.

I will be at NIH Flying in Dec 7th and Departing on Dec 12th. If anyone else will be at NIH during that time and would like to meet up let me know.

I'm just giving this thread another poke since I'll be at NIH next week. If anyone else is going to be there and would like to meet up let me know.

I'm flying in on Dec 7th and Fly out on Dec 12th. I don't have my schedule yet, although I should have it this week before I fly out, so I don't know what days I'll have free time yet.
