Sone,

Where are you in the Midwest...I am in WI and my husband was treated at Froedtert. My husband used to lay in bed and cry before treatments, for some people the treatments are hell on earth.

I do not know of anyone who stopped their treatments as early as you did. From what I have read, you have not received a therapeutic dose yet. So, as I interpret that, it means you have gone through hell for nothing. I know it's hard...glad to hear you are working with pain management specialists and I'm glad you found this forum.

Please, please don't stop!


Margaret
