Who else has had Gem-Abraxane chemo regimen and for how long?

I’m on Gemzar/Abraxane every other week. Yesterday the oncologist was weighing the merits of staying on that schedule, where I have time in between for days when I feel good and have energy versus a more aggressive schedule of 2 or 3 in a row. We both opted for the status quo, he so that there’s not a possible interruption to chemo if my numbers drop due to a tighter schedule and so that I have more high energy days, and I for the same energy reasons and because right now the tumors are stable.

Same with my husband. When he did 3 weeks on and one off his platelets often didn’t cooperate and he had very few good days between treatments until the off week. Every other is so much better and tumors stable with him also.
