That’s is very positive information. Can I ask what chemo you were/are on? After one treatment my husband had embolisms and 2 heart attacks to unsafe to use 1st line (Firinox) chemo. So when safe they are changing his to Gemabr

I am on gemcitabine & Abraxane. 30 minutes prior to them I get Aloxi & Decadron IV. I did 44 treatments the first round. Started out 2 weeks on and one off then went to every other week after several months because I was feeling very fatigued. I probably should have taken a "break" way earlier than 44 treatments since my numbers went to 8 in Feb of 2023 and then very slowly increased. After 6 chemo treatments this time the CA 19-9 went from339.7 to 44.7 🙂 So far my worse side effects have been peripheral neuropathy to my fingers and feet & weight gain. Small price for staying alive 🙂
