Thanks Joanna, Currently my tx regimen is chemo only x 4 more weeks, but my oncologist said that next week if the mass is not showing significant reduction then he may consider combo therapy w chemo and radiation. I am a hospital pharmacist so I am very familiar with the meds but it is sure strange to be on the receiving side versus the compounding and dispensing side. Currently I am only experiencing the aching and fatigue for a couple of days after tx. I must admit I am dreading the rad.
