Hi Cheryld
My mom gets good days and bad days. The IV fluids seem to help her a lot after she takes a treatment.
At this point I am worried about the open wound on her neck. The only way this wound will heal some is for the chemo to work. Its called a Ulcerating cancer wound. The doctors are looking into what the next treatment will be. Possible Electro chemotherapy.
