Hi,
I am in a Rochester mayo trial. It has 2-3 weeks of reduced treatments. I have had 2 of 4 FLOT, to be followed by 2 FOLFLOX and 3 weeks of daily Proton radiation. So far it hasnt been too bad. Some neuropathy setting in, light nausea and digestive.
This trial may be an option to discuss with your Oncologist. Its called PHOX trial - only at Rochester and AZ
We all share very similar feelings of surrealness, despair and anger. We search for information, positive stories and results and the comfort and insight of others that can truely understand.
Best Wishes! RickK

My husband was just recently diagnosed, and he will start the PHOX regimen as of May 6. He will have two months of chemo then three weeks of a combination of chemo radiation and then surgery.
