Gary, Only after 2 Rads and one Cisplatin my tumor feels like it is shrinking...How well have your salivary glands held out...and also what was the unfavorable reaction to the 2nd Chemo?? I just finished taking the last Zofran pill and have only one dose of dexamethsone to take for this round of Chemo, I have just a slight bit of nausea...so far so so good..Gary, Thank You!!it's really a great feeling for me to have someone who been through the paces!!I'm still figuring out how to use this sight so I hope that all my messages get through...Thanks ever so much! Tom
