Hi mm,
I ask about paxlovid because you say it took 4 weeks before next treatment. I got covid in January and took paxlovid and was off chemo for the required 10 days even though I was well after about 5 days. However, I am currently on the 3:1 ratio of chemo (3 wks on and 1 wk off). I protested to come in after 5 days since at Hoag (I hadn’t made the change to chemo at UCLA yet) you have private rooms and I felt I wouldn’t be a threat to anyone else as far as covid being a contagious disease, but was denied. By my next treatment I was already accepted into the UCLA chemo. My long point is I know being off chemo especially since I’m at the very early stages of getting it and it hadn’t had time to build up in my body yet, that my cancer areas could grow. I thought maybe it took you 4 weeks because you were making a long recovery without paxlovid. I’m sure your numbers will go back down once you continue chemo.

I smoked for 36 years and stopped in 2007. I had quit for 15 years when I was diagnosed with pan can. Actually, there was suspicious lesions & the VA sent me to a pulmonologist & she ordered the PET scan that confirmed issues with the pancreas & then adventure began!
