I guess I lost that email. Could you tell me how to "add a signature". I can't find signature when I search the site.
In the meantime, here is my cut and paste.
Thank you RogerP

PaulB, thanks for all your insights. I took the chemo as an outpatient. I was basically in bed with fatigue 3 to 4 days a week, progressively worse toward the end. I had a severe rash on my face and chest from the Cetuximab, which Doc and nurse said indicated it was working. Due to the rash, I only received Cetuximab 3 of the 6 chemo sessions.

Roger, you did better than me. 5 days of in-patient IC, Taxotere, Cisplatin, 5-FU knocked me out, almost for good lol. Strange though, cause I had more chemo, surgery, and radiation to follow with lesser problems. I did Erbitux, I felt like an itch ball. Didn't get as much a rash on my face than I did on my arms, legs, scalp, but that's the association with it working.

All the best.
