Due to complications the third doses was cancelled. Smaller weekly chemo doses are much easier to tolerate.[/quote]What is the general experience to concurrent weekly chemo and radiation? "much easier" is a tasty phrase to drool over than the former situation you describe where folks have to bail on the bi weekly cycle. I'm assuming the scheduled dosing is the same for both infusion options, just different dosing.
