Have had 2 chemo treatments, had scan last week yesterday, yesterday the Oncologist told me that there is no shrinkage but also there is no further growth (I have primary Adrnocarcinoma in lung and secondary in adrenal gland) he seems to be happy with peogress so far and said they continue with this treatment and after 2 further 2 chemos will do another scan and then decide whether to change the chemo for the last 2 treatments. My question is "is it fairly normal NOT to have shrinkage after the first 2 treatments.

Thanks.

Nan
