Geez, people! I would not have realized how many options there were and that I'd almost need a medical degree to get through this mess!
.....and Gary, you are just soooooo descriptive that I can literally "feel your pain!"
I do find it most interesting that there are so many different reactions/tolerances/experiences with the same treatments. WE are truly unique individuals, are we not? I'm telling Tom that I would think that since his body obviously HATES the chemo, that the radiation might be a 'friend.' We can only hope...
This Xeloda causes his skin to turn splotchy-red...face/chest/feet/top of his head. He says his fingertips are tingly, too. Tomorrow is the last dose of the stuff for a week.........and radiation starts tomorrow, too...
Hope you all had a good day - Tom spent more money today - and I tell him I do believe this disease has moved to his brain!!!!!!!
