Markus, thanks for that info, I do remember you sharing it with me in a previous post but the reminder was needed. We will strictly request a test or partial dose before the loading dose is administered IF we end up selecting Erbitux (which I am still deciding and looking for studies about the efficacy of).

FIL completed treatment 10/08. CG to father in Law in india who had SCC oral tongue T2N2M0. FIL underwent surgery, neck dissection, IMRT, and erbitux without losing weight or getting nauseated. Completed October 2008. SO far so good.
