Eric-
I never did well on the chemo. Mine was cisplatin 24 hours followed by 4 days of 5fu. A 5 day hospital stay, 3 weeks off then start over again. 4 total treatments. Was sick every step of the way. The docs tried all sorts of cocktails and even had the hospital pharmacist come up to meet me and see if he had any ideas. Getting sick with radiation burns in your throat made life very uncomfortable. Hummm, not giving you much encouragement here am I??? Other than to say when treatment ends there is hope and you'll feel better again! It really doesn't last forever and there will be joy in eatting again! Really! Hang in there! Ask them to try a few more meds and they might hit the right combination for you. - Kris
