Hi Amy,
I just read your reply to my post from August. Johnny(my husbad) had a peg tube inserted for nutrition on 9-1. He has his last radiation treatment this coming Tuesday and we will know Wednesday if he will receive any further Erbitux treatments. The only reaction he seems to have had from the Erbitux is a rash. He was prescribed Xclair cream for the radiation burns and it helps this rash as well. He his is still having a lot of pain from the sores in his throat, they have started to bleed and he is not sleeping well. The doctor started with liquid Viocodin and he is now taking Oxy codone still little relief from the pain. With the treatments ending next week, does anyone have any advise on speeding up the healing process? Also, will we know right away if all of the cancer is gone?
Thanks for any suggestions
