They can't really test you. Yes I was put on a cross treatment mix of a milder chemo with radiation. I'm now 2 years post op and doing pretty well.
I was fit and healthy before just unlucky enough to wind up with complications from basically everything that was done.

There is actually a test they can do prior to giving someone 5FU-I think it’s a genetic test. That said, it’s probably not foolproof; someone might not have a specific gene and still have a heart attack. I’m glad you’re doing better now!
