@branckerd Right now my maintenance chemo is every 2 weeks. I have Mvasi for 30 minutes, then Leucovorin for 1 hour, then 5-FU in the chemo ball for 46 hours. I go to an infusion center through the local hospital for all of this in Newburgh, Indiana. I see the oncologist every 4 weeks (just so I don't have to have so many appointments). Saw him yesterday, and he is confident that the cancer will remain stable for a while longer. He said there is effective second line chemo for when the cancer begins growing again. I get a repeat CT around March to see where everything is currently. CEA from yesterday was 3.2.
