Thinking of you and your husband. I hope the 4th brought moments of peace and joy for you and your family. Praying he’s feeling stronger and more at ease as he continues through his treatments.
I’m glad he was able to start treatment. My husband just finished 4 rounds of FLOT chemo; it was really rough but he got through it. The reduced the last dosage by 15% because we didn’t feel his body could handle another dosage at 100% . They give a person as much as they feel can be tolerated and sometimes it becomes too much. The reduction helped as far as some of the worst of the side effects. We just met with the surgeon and are feeling a bit overwhelmed at the moment. I saw your post and wanted to check in and see how you guys were.

Be sure to monitor BP also. I had similar experiences while undergoing chemotherapy. I was blacking out because my blood pressure was dropping too low. Doc gave me some medicine to counteract that.
