FLOT chemotherapy? How many rounds?

I’m glad to hear he’s starting to do a little better. That’s scary! Sometimes I think these docs don’t look at the human element of how hard this is. No way is my hubby doing more than 4 ahead. I’m afraid of what cycle 2 is going to be like. Did they do a scan on your Dad? My hubby isn’t doing radiation, thankfully. The mass is small enough that they don’t think it’s necessary with this protocol. I feel like, at some point, we’re going to see if a lesser dosage will still be effective, maybe after the surgery (🙏🏼 we get there).

They haven't done a scan since starting chemo. They said once radiation is done and settled they will. Radiation inflammation will not show a true scan.
