Had a scan yesterday morning. Doctor's appointment is in a week and a half, but I got the CD with the scan and had a look at it myself. Everything is perfectly stable (over a period of 3.5 years) to within 0-2 mm, except for one nodule (well, and all the ones that have been ablated and resected between now and then) which is clearly growing. I actually spotted it last time 6 months ago, but it was still not 100% clear. It's gonna be hilarious if the radiologist says everything is "stable". That's what they've done to me in the past twice. They only report growth when the offending met hit around 1.5 cm, and then we have to run around hectically setting up an ablation once, and a thoracotomy another time. No more LOL, I'd rather spot it myself
Starting in 2008, it grew 5->7 in 2 years, then 7->8 in 6 months, and finally 8->10mm in 6 months. Already emailed the doctor who performed the last ablation here in Vancouver. He agrees with me, and he said that this guy should get ablated. Actually, they are in the process of getting the Fluoro CT (continuous during the procedure) upgrade for their machine, which he says would be very helpful for the specific location of this met. It's relatively near (I already asked - not close enough to invade like what happened in 'K''s case) to the pulmonary artery, so this Fluoro setup is needed.
I have to say, looking at the old scans which had TONS of mets in both lungs, it's quite amazing to see how clear the right lung in particular looks right now. Well over 100 mets were removed from there. There are maybe 5 visible nodules, but the majority of them are probably scar tissue (biggest one is 8mm). Neither of them changed even a single mm since 2008.
Please give him a gentle hug and celebratory High 5 for me, and my best wishes for a full and speedy recovery from the procedure.
Doesn't matter, the doctor who does cryoablation (Dr. David Liu) was with me on the scan reading haha. 
How are you doing?
. Ivan's having tolerated the procedure so well and being able to be discharged from the hospital without the anticipated overnight stay is truly a testimony to the benefit of having the tumor ablated at the smallest possible size, as well as to Ivan's dedicted physical excercise and conditioning. I am grateful that the Cryo procedure performed by a well qualified and experienced doctor is now available to you locally without the great burden and expense of long distance travel and out of town housing, and I am so happy that international doctors are being trained so that this much less invasive treatment option can be made available to more patients with lung mets which are unresectable or located in dangerous or difficult to access areas of the lung. Take care Ivan, rest well, and have a full and speedy recovery.
