When I had chemo/radiation at MDACC four years ago the doses of chemo were small and short. If I recall I only had the chemo approximately 4 times for about 4 hours each to go along with my 5 weeks of standard radiation. I had no hair loss or any other side effects from the chemo of which I am aware. I was participating in a study.
Now I hear from many folks both here and from a fellow that I met through CanCare in Houston that are receiving very large doses of chemo along with the radiation at MDACC and elsewhere.
Have things changed? Do they use larger doses of chemo to go along with IMRT?
