Thanks for the information folks... Yes, this is a wonderful forum. I discovered it just as the big-time side effects were kicking in (treatments 12-15)...

Will be checking back often and will be more than glad to shine a light on the path for those coming along behind me... I would consider that an honor since many of you have done that for me...

I'll try to post "my story" in the other forum soon... it's not nearly as dramatic I guess as many of the ones on here(we caught things pretty early), but it's been an ordeal nonetheless...

Blessings...
Eric
