Dear AngAk-
I'm on the same treatment. I can't speak for everyone but it has been fine so far. The chemo(once every 3 weeks) makes me tired for a few days and I feel a little nasueas but not too much. Then the Erbitux is once a week, the only side effects are that they give me benadryl before the infusion which makes you groggy for a few hours, and I have the rash/acne which most people get. The rash isn't too bad though, and the doctors keep an eye on it.
I had radiation back in February and that was much worse than this chemo/Erbitux has been.
