Hello and thank you for answering some of my questions. My parents went to the oncologist today, they want to do a biopsy on the lungs to make sure they know what they are fighting. The CT scan shows four small spots on three of the lobes. They will be starting chemo shortly after that. A combo of three; taxoline, cisplatin and 5FU.
The Doc was very straight forward with my dad and told him this will be very hard on him. (He also has diabetes) He will be in the hospital for five days for the first infusion. My brother did not like her bedside manner and felt all this information was to much for dad who broke down pretty hard after that appointment.



Daughter of father (71) who has SCC in cheek, hyoid bone and lungs. 3 X paclitaxol and carboplatin every 21 days.
