It's my mother who has been battling the cancer. I've been her caregiver from day one.
The Cisplatin with FU5 was not a good experience for my mother. She developed severe Mucositis and had to be hospitalized. The doctor had to stop the treatment.
Hopefully my mother can tolerate this different treatment she is about to take.
I want to wish you the best of luck along the way. There are many forum members here who have helped me and they will help you to. If you have Any questions there is always someone here who has experienced it.
Good luck
Heidi
