There is tons of info on the forum and main OCF pages about Erbitux. One thing that sticks in my mind most of all about this chemo is the more of a rash, the better it seems to be working. Please take a few minutes to type Erbitux into the SEARCH bar and check out the many posts. Or just click on the word (where you see it highlighted and underlined) and you will see detailed info on the main OCF pages.

Best wishes to your wife with everything!
