John's wife and Charm

That is really frightening information about the Erbitux. I wonder if I should refuse for it to be used on me.

Charm

I saw you mentioned that you were being given Carboplatin this time and it sounds like there was nausea. Was the nausea worse than with Erbitux? I wonder if I should ask for Carbonplatin instead of Erbitux. Whatever I am given will be given in Atlanta when I return and not given in Pittsburgh.

Are you definitely having Cyberknife? I thought I was having Cyberknife but when I noticed that the equipment looked different than what I had found by Googling I ask about it. I was told that I was being treated with a linear accelerator. Upon further inquiry I was told it is IMRS which does what Cyberknife does and more. Are you familiar with the IMRS approach?

I have not ask about the Gy's but will try to ask today.
